Section 69-16 of Goshen, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 69 establishes a two-step review process for decisions made by the enforcement officer. First, any person who disagrees with such a decision may bring an appeal before the Town Board, which must follow the procedures set out in §§ 69-10 through 69-14 of the same chapter. If a party remains dissatisfied after the Town Board issues its determination, that ruling may be further reviewed by the New York Supreme Court through an Article 78 proceeding under the Civil Practice Law and Rules.

Property owners and managers subject to Chapter 69 enforcement actions in Goshen should be aware that § 69-16 provides a formal path to challenge any decision issued by the enforcement officer. A compliant operator generally keeps thorough records of all communications, notices, and compliance efforts, as that documentation becomes relevant if an appeal to the Town Board is pursued under §§ 69-10 through 69-14. Should the Town Board's determination still be unfavorable, the operator retains the option of seeking judicial review in New York Supreme Court via an Article 78 proceeding.
