Haverstraw Town, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 128 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 128-6
When effective
Operative Text
This chapter shall become effective upon filing with the Secretary of State.
Section 128-6 of Haverstraw Town's Code of Ordinances, Chapter 128, establishes when the chapter's rental regulations take legal effect. The provisions of this chapter became operative at the moment they were filed with the New York Secretary of State, which is the standard mechanism by which local laws in New York become enforceable. This means the rules in Chapter 128 carry the force of law from that filing date forward.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers subject to Chapter 128 should be aware that, per § 128-6, the obligations set out in this chapter have been in effect since the date of filing with the Secretary of State. Compliant operators generally confirm the effective date of any local law to ensure they understand when their compliance obligations began. Keeping records of when regulatory requirements took effect can be useful for demonstrating ongoing adherence to the chapter's provisions.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Under § 128-6, the protections and requirements established in Chapter 128 became enforceable as of the date the chapter was filed with the Secretary of State. Tenants who believe a landlord's conduct predates or postdates the chapter's effective date may find it relevant to verify that filing date when assessing their rights under this chapter. Local tenant-rights organizations or the town's relevant municipal office can help clarify when the chapter's protections formally took effect.
