On June 2, the City Council voted on legislation requiring inspections for self-closing doors in residential buildings. This is an additional fire safety measure to prevent fire tragedies, and it complements the recent legislative package that was passed in May and signed into law on June 1. These bills passed by the Council are intended to strengthen fire safety in residences throughout New York City, in the aftermath of the Jan. 9 Twin Parks fire in the Bronx.
