What is the important focus during a reoccupancy reinspection?

The focus during a reoccupancy reinspection is primarily on the visual clean status of the unit. This stage is critical because it verifies that any lead hazard control measures taken have been successful in mitigating lead exposure risks. A clean status indicates that any potential sources of lead dust or contamination have been addressed, ensuring that the living environment is safe for reoccupation, especially for vulnerable populations like children.

While the completion of décor work, landscaping, and general home conditions may contribute to the overall livability and aesthetics of the unit, they are not the primary concerns during this specific inspection. The goal is to ensure that the space is free from hazardous lead levels and that any remediation efforts have proven effective. This focus helps protect occupants from the dangers associated with lead poisoning and ensures compliance with safety regulations.
