Hempstead Town, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 99 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 99-19
Register of permits
Operative Text
It shall be the duty of the Code Enforcement Official to maintain a register of the rental occupancy permits issued pursuant to this article. Such register shall be kept by Nassau County County Tax Map designation (section, block and lot or lots), permit number, and street address showing the name and address of the permittee, the number of rental dwelling units at such street address, the number of rooms in each such rental dwelling unit and the date that said rental occupancy permit expires for such unit.
Under Hempstead Town Code ch. 99 § 99-19, the Code Enforcement Official is required to maintain a formal register of all rental occupancy permits issued under this article. The register must be organized by Nassau County Tax Map designation, permit number, and street address, and must include the permittee's name and address, the number of rental dwelling units at each address, the number of rooms in each unit, and each permit's expiration date. This provision establishes a public administrative record-keeping obligation rather than imposing duties on landlords or tenants directly.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Hempstead Town Code ch. 99 § 99-19 means that once a rental occupancy permit is issued, the property's details—including the Tax Map designation, number of units, room counts, and permit expiration date—are entered into an official register maintained by the Code Enforcement Official. Compliant operators generally ensure that the information they provide when obtaining a permit is accurate and current, since that information forms the basis of the official record. Keeping track of permit expiration dates is a practical step, as the register is organized in part by those dates.

Hempstead Town Code ch. 99 § 99-19 requires the town to maintain a register of rental occupancy permits that includes the address, number of units, room counts, and permit expiration dates for rental properties. This means tenants can potentially inquire with the Code Enforcement Official to verify whether a rental property holds a valid permit and whether the recorded details match the unit they occupy. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Nassau County housing rules can help explain how to access or use this register information.
