This chapter shall take effect immediately.
Section 157-22 of Greece, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 157 establishes that the rental regulations contained in that chapter became operative without any delayed implementation period. There was no phase-in window or future effective date; the rules applied from the moment the chapter was enacted. This type of provision is a standard legislative mechanism confirming immediate legal force.

Under Section 157-22 of Greece, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 157, property owners and managers should understand that no grace period was built into the chapter's rollout. Compliant operators generally treat all substantive requirements of Chapter 157 as having been in force from the date of enactment, without waiting for any separate triggering event. Reviewing the full chapter alongside this effective-date provision helps ensure that no obligations were inadvertently treated as deferred.

Section 157-22 of Greece, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 157 confirms that tenant protections established by the chapter took effect immediately upon enactment, meaning there was no gap period during which landlords could lawfully delay compliance. Tenants who believe a landlord failed to comply with Chapter 157 from its earliest days may have grounds to raise that timeline in a complaint or proceeding. Local tenant-rights organizations or the Town of Greece can be useful starting points for understanding how the immediate effective date interacts with specific protections in the chapter.
