Renewal of permit
Operative Text
A rental permit may be renewed by application to the Department of Public Safety as in the case of an original permit application, with payment of a non-refundable application fee of twenty-five ($25) dollars and the production of any documents deemed necessary by the Director. All applications for a renewal of a permit shall be filed before the expiration of the original permit, and are subject to the late charges set forth in § 160-26(B) . A permit may only be renewed by the same owner for the same property upon the payment of the permit fee set forth in § 160-26(A) .
Section 160-27 of Huntington, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 160 establishes the process for renewing a residential rental permit. Renewal requires submitting an application to the Department of Public Safety, paying a non-refundable $25 application fee, and providing any documents the Director requests. Applications must be submitted before the current permit expires; those filed late are subject to additional charges as outlined in § 160-26(B), and only the same owner may renew a permit for the same property upon paying the permit fee specified in § 160-26(A).
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 160-27, property owners who hold a rental permit in Huntington, N.Y. are expected to submit their renewal application to the Department of Public Safety before the existing permit's expiration date to avoid the late charges referenced in § 160-26(B). A compliant operator keeps track of permit expiration dates, prepares the $25 non-refundable application fee, and gathers any supporting documents the Director may require. Because § 160-27 specifies that only the same owner may renew for the same property, operators who have transferred ownership should be aware that a new original permit application process may apply rather than a renewal.

If a permit has lapsed or was not properly renewed in accordance with § 160-27, tenants may have grounds to raise that status as a concern with the relevant local authority or in applicable proceedings. Tenants who believe their rental unit is operating without a valid permit can look into contacting the Huntington Department of Public Safety or a local tenant-rights organization to understand what remedies or complaint processes may be available.
