Hamburg Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 182 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 182-3
Performance of work by Village
Operative Text
In the event that the owner of such land receives notification to correct the violation and does not comply therewith, the Code Enforcement Officer shall engage the services of a private contractor to perform the necessary work. The Code Enforcement Officer shall charge and bill the owner for the cost of such services. In his or her discretion, the Code Enforcement Officer may coordinate with the Department of Public Works Superintendent to do the work, in which case a charge shall be made to cover the cost incurred to accomplish the work required.
Hamburg Village Code of Ordinances ch. 182 § 182-3 establishes a mechanism by which the Village can step in and perform corrective work on private land when an owner fails to comply with a violation notice. The Code Enforcement Officer has the authority to hire a private contractor or coordinate with the Department of Public Works to complete the required work. In either case, the cost of that work is billed back to the property owner.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under ch. 182 § 182-3, property owners in Hamburg Village who receive a notice of violation are expected to address and correct the cited condition within the timeframe specified. If the work is not completed, the Code Enforcement Officer is authorized to arrange for the work to be done—either through a private contractor or the Department of Public Works—and the owner will be charged for the full cost incurred. Compliant operators typically respond promptly to violation notices to avoid incurring these third-party remediation costs.

Section 182-3 of the Hamburg Village Code of Ordinances gives the Village a direct enforcement tool when a property owner ignores a violation notice: the Village can have the work done and charge the owner for it. Tenants who observe that a cited violation on their property has not been corrected may find it useful to contact the Code Enforcement Officer to inquire about the status of compliance. Tenant-rights organizations can help residents understand what options may be available when a landlord fails to address outstanding violations.
