Interpretation. In their interpretation and application, the provisions of this article shall be held to the minimum requirements, adopted for the promotion of the public health, morals, safety or the general welfare. Whenever the requirements of this article are at variance with the requirements of any other lawfully adopted rules, regulations or statutes, the most restrictive, or that imposing the highest standards, shall govern. C. Validity. The invalidity of any section or provision of this article shall not invalidate any other section or provision thereof. D. Short title. This article shall be known and may be cited as "The Village of Cazenovia Fair Housing Law."
Section 105-8 of Cazenovia Village's Code of Ordinances establishes several foundational rules governing the Fair Housing Law itself. The Board of Trustees retains authority to amend, supplement, or repeal the article following public notice and a hearing. When this article's requirements conflict with other rules or statutes, the stricter standard applies, and if any single provision is found invalid, the rest of the article remains in force.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating in Cazenovia Village should be aware that the standards set out under 'The Village of Cazenovia Fair Housing Law' (ch. 105 § 105-8) represent minimum requirements, meaning any overlapping local, state, or federal rule that imposes a higher standard will take precedence. Compliant operators generally monitor for amendments to this article, which can be initiated by the Board of Trustees after public notice and hearing. Staying current with any changes ensures that operational practices remain aligned with whichever applicable standard is most restrictive.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 105-8 establishes that the Village of Cazenovia Fair Housing Law sets a floor, not a ceiling — if another law or regulation offers stronger protections, that higher standard governs. Tenants can take note that the article's protections remain intact even if one specific provision were ever found legally invalid, as the rest of the law continues to apply. Those who believe their fair housing rights have been affected may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or review applicable state and federal fair housing resources to understand which standard applies to their situation.
