To be added to such prohibited buildings list, a building owner, including any applicable board of a cooperative corporation or condominium, or the manager or agent of such building or board, must submit an online application to the administering agency. The applicant must provide:
- the name of a natural person making the application;
- a working phone number for the applicant;
- an e-mail address for the applicant;
- the address of the building the applicant seeks to add to the list;
- an explanation of the relationship between the owner and the applicant; and

The OSE will publish the list of prohibited buildings on the city's open data website. An application to remove a building from the prohibited buildings list may also be made by using an online application accessible from the OSE's website.
