DEPARTMENT OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS OPENS CITY’S NEW LICENSING CENTER OFFERING ENHANCED SERVICES TO FURTHER HELP BUSINESSES THRIVE

Department of Consumer Affairs Commissioner (DCA) Julie Menin today announced the grand opening of DCA’s new Licensing Center in the lobby of 42 Broadway in Lower Manhattan. The 12,700-square-foot space was constructed in six months and provides additional needed space to allow DCA to continue serving businesses in person at a centralized location. This welcoming and easy-to-use Center is part of DCA’s ongoing efforts to meet Mayor de Blasio’s goal of improving the climate for small business in New York. Earlier this year, DCA implemented a Business Relief Package of nearly two-dozen reforms that are reducing fines in number and cost, as well as increasing transparency, fairness, education and outreach.
