Croton-on-Hudson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 186 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 186-20
Remedies not exclusive
Operative Text
The provisions of this article are not exclusive and are in addition to and do not supersede or preempt other remedies or provisions of the Village, State, or Federal laws and the housing code as may apply. Nothing in this law shall be construed as limiting the Village's rights to enforce other local laws or laws of other authorities having jurisdiction, e.g., The New York State Property Maintenance Code.
Section 186-20 of Croton-on-Hudson's Code of Ordinances establishes that the remedies and requirements set out in Article 186 exist alongside—and do not replace—any other applicable Village, New York State, or federal laws, including housing and property maintenance codes. This means that a party subject to Article 186 may also be subject to enforcement under entirely separate legal frameworks, such as the New York State Property Maintenance Code. The provision prevents anyone from arguing that Article 186 is the sole or exclusive source of rights and obligations in a given situation.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 186-20, property owners and managers operating in Croton-on-Hudson should be aware that compliance with Article 186 alone does not satisfy all legal obligations that may apply to a rental property. Compliant operators generally maintain familiarity with overlapping requirements from Village ordinances, New York State law (including the New York State Property Maintenance Code), and applicable federal regulations. Because § 186-20 explicitly preserves the Village's authority to enforce other laws concurrently, operators typically treat Article 186 as one layer of a broader compliance framework rather than a complete checklist.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 186-20 makes clear that tenants in Croton-on-Hudson are not limited to the remedies provided within Article 186 when addressing housing concerns. If a condition or landlord action may violate other Village ordinances, New York State law, or federal law—such as the New York State Property Maintenance Code—those separate legal avenues remain available and are not displaced by Article 186. Tenants who believe multiple legal frameworks may apply to their situation can consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider to understand the full range of options that § 186-20 preserves.
