Under Camillus, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 86 § 86-7, when a code violation is found at a rental property, the Code Enforcement Officer issues a compliance order giving the responsible party up to 30 days to correct the problem. If corrections are not made within that window, civil or criminal court proceedings may follow, and continuing to rent the property while violations remain unaddressed is itself unlawful. Separately, failing to file the required registration form or pay the associated registration fee also constitutes a violation of Chapter 86.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of rental properties in Camillus should be aware that § 86-7 empowers the Code Enforcement Officer to issue compliance orders requiring correction of Uniform Code or other regulatory violations within a set timeframe—no more than 30 days. Compliant operators generally respond promptly to any compliance order, complete all required repairs before the deadline, and ensure that registration forms and fees under Chapter 86 are filed and paid on time. Allowing a unit to remain occupied after a compliance order has been issued without timely correcting the cited violations exposes an owner to civil or criminal liability under this provision.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 86-7 of Camillus's Code of Ordinances provides tenants with a framework of protections: when violations are found at a rental property, the Code Enforcement Officer is required to issue a compliance order, and the landlord must correct those violations within the stated period. If a landlord continues to rent a unit after a compliance order has been issued and violations remain uncorrected, that conduct is explicitly unlawful under Chapter 86, which may be relevant information when consulting a tenant-rights organization or local housing authority. Tenants who believe their landlord has not complied with a compliance order may wish to contact the Camillus Code Enforcement Office or seek guidance from a local tenant-rights resource about available options.
