Holley, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 146 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 146-10
Penalties for offenses
Operative Text
Where a person or organization has been found, after trial on the merits, in violation of this chapter, a fine shall be imposed on such person or organization, not to exceed $10,000 for a first offense, and $25,000 for a second offense and $50,000 for third offense. Each and every separate violation of this chapter shall be deemed an offense for the purposes of imposing the appropriate fine.
Section 146-10 of Holley, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 146 establishes a tiered fine structure for violations of the chapter. A first offense carries a maximum fine of $10,000, a second offense up to $25,000, and a third offense up to $50,000. Each distinct violation of the chapter is treated as its own separate offense when calculating which tier applies, and fines are only imposed after a trial on the merits.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 146-10, property owners and managers found in violation of Chapter 146 after a trial on the merits face escalating fines — up to $10,000 for a first offense, $25,000 for a second, and $50,000 for a third. Because each separate violation counts as its own offense, operators with multiple properties or units should be aware that non-compliance across several instances can compound quickly. Compliant operators generally maintain thorough records of their practices under Chapter 146 to demonstrate adherence if a dispute arises.
