Operative Text
A. Business units, as defined herein, shall at all times be maintained in compliance with the provisions of this chapter regulating open spaces, buildings or structures and littering. B.

C. No shopping baskets, carts or wagons shall be left unattended or standing in open areas, and same shall be collected at the close of business each day by the occupant of such unit and removed to the interior of the building or buildings or arranged neatly against the building and secured against removal by chains or other appropriate means. D. No mobile refrigeration unit shall be operated on the premises after the closing of the business conducted thereon unless such mobile refrigeration unit is electrically operated. E. No truck or other vehicle shall be loaded or unloaded outside the confines of the building or buildings on the premises before 7:00 a.m. or after the business conducted on the premises has been closed to the public in such a manner as to cause excessive noise or disturbance to the adjoining properties. F. All fences and planting areas installed on the premises shall be maintained by the owner of the property. Such maintenance shall include but shall not be limited to the maintenance and cutting of lawns and the replacement and/or repair of fences which may become in disrepair.
Section 106-5 of Coxsackie's Code of Ordinances establishes a set of ongoing maintenance and operational standards for business units within the village. The rule covers a range of exterior conditions, including refuse storage, shopping cart management, mobile refrigeration noise, vehicle loading hours, and the upkeep of fences and landscaping. Collectively, these requirements are designed to keep commercial premises orderly, minimize disturbances to neighboring properties, and prevent blight in open areas.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and property owners subject to § 106-5 generally keep all refuse stored inside the building or within an approved enclosure, arrange for regular collection, and ensure no rubbish accumulates outside at any time. Shopping carts and wagons are retrieved and secured or stored inside at the close of each business day, and truck loading or unloading that could cause excessive noise is limited to hours after 7:00 a.m. and before the business closes to the public. Property owners are also responsible for maintaining all fences and planted areas on the premises, including lawn cutting and fence repairs, in ongoing compliance with ch. 106.

While § 106-5 primarily governs business-unit operators and property owners rather than residential tenants, individuals affected by violations—such as excessive noise from late-night loading or accumulating refuse near adjoining properties—may report concerns to the local code enforcement office in Coxsackie. Reviewing the full text of ch. 106 can help affected parties understand what standards apply and whether a specific condition falls within the scope of the ordinance. Tenant-rights organizations or local municipal offices can provide general guidance on how complaints under this provision are typically handled.
