Identification
Operative Text
The owner of any building defined herein as an absentee ownership property shall post and maintain in a conspicuous place in such dwelling a legible notice identifying the owner and managing agent of such dwelling, together with the residence and business addresses and telephone numbers of the owner and managing agent. Where the owner is a corporation, the sign shall contain the name, address and telephone number of the chief executive officer thereof, together with the business address and telephone number of the corporation.
Canton Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 248 § 248-19 requires that absentee-owned residential buildings display a clearly readable notice in a prominent location inside the dwelling. That notice must identify both the owner and the managing agent, including their residential or business addresses and phone numbers. When the owner is a corporation, the notice must also include the name, address, and phone number of the corporation's chief executive officer alongside the corporation's own business contact information.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 248-19, operators of absentee ownership properties in Canton Village generally keep a legible, up-to-date identification notice posted in a conspicuous interior location at all times. Compliant operators ensure the notice lists the owner's and managing agent's full contact details — addresses and phone numbers — and, if the owner is a corporation, also includes the CEO's name and contact information along with the corporation's business address and phone number. Reviewing the posted notice whenever ownership, management, or contact information changes is a standard part of maintaining compliance with this provision.

Section 248-19 of Canton Village's Code of Ordinances gives residents of absentee-owned buildings the right to see a clearly posted notice identifying who owns and manages their dwelling, along with contact information for those parties. If that notice is missing, illegible, or incomplete — including the required corporate officer details when applicable — that may constitute a code violation. Tenants who believe this provision is not being followed can document the condition, contact the relevant Canton Village code enforcement office, or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
