Operative Text
A. An application for a rental occupancy permit for a rental dwelling unit shall be made to the Superintendent and shall include the following information and such other information as the Superintendent may deem appropriate: (1) The name, address, telephone number, and email address of the managing agent or operator, if any, or of the owner of the rental building; (2) The street address and tax map description (section, block. and lot or lots) of the rental building; and (3) The number of dwelling units within the rental building. (4) The name, telephone number, and email address of the occupant or occupants to whom the dwelling unit is rented. If not known at the time of the registration, that information shall be added to the registration within 30 days after it becomes known. In the event that such dwelling unit is at any time thereafter rented to a different occupant or occupants, within 30 days of that rental, such registration information shall be updated so that it is always current. (5) A floor plan or other diagram sufficient for the Superintendent to identify the location of the dwelling unit within the rental building if the dwelling unit is only part of the rental building. (6) A certification that the dwelling unit: (a) Is equipped with the required number and placement of properly functioning smoke detector devices and carbon monoxide alarms in compliance with the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code; and (b) Is in compliance with all other Village, Nassau County, New York State, and other relevant municipal codes; and (c) Valid certificates of occupancy or compliance have been issued for all structures, equipment, and other work as may be required for the dwelling unit by the Village Code. (7) A certification that the dwelling unit shall only be occupied by one family. B. Each application shall be executed and acknowledged by the owner of the rental building.
Kings Point Code ch. 122 § 122-5 establishes what information must be submitted when applying for a rental occupancy permit in the Village of Kings Point. The application, directed to the Superintendent, must cover owner and managing-agent contact details, the property's address and tax map description, unit count, occupant contact information, a floor plan if needed, and certifications that the unit meets fire-safety codes, all applicable municipal codes, and single-family occupancy requirements. Occupant information that is unknown at filing must be added within 30 days of becoming known, and must be updated within 30 days whenever a new occupant moves in.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Kings Point Code ch. 122 § 122-5, compliant rental building owners submit a fully completed application to the Superintendent before renting a dwelling unit, ensuring all required fields—contact details, tax map description, unit count, floor plan if applicable, and occupant information—are accurate at the time of filing. Owners also provide certifications confirming that smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms meet New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code standards, that the unit complies with all relevant codes, and that valid certificates of occupancy or compliance are in place. Because § 122-5 requires occupant information to remain current, operators generally maintain a process for updating the registration within 30 days whenever a tenancy changes.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Kings Point Code ch. 122 § 122-5 requires that any rental dwelling unit in the Village be covered by a valid rental occupancy permit, which means the unit must have been certified as meeting fire-safety requirements, applicable building codes, and single-family occupancy rules before it is rented. Tenants who have questions about whether their unit holds a current permit, or whether required certifications were made, may inquire with the Village Superintendent's office, which administers the permit process under this section. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Nassau County housing regulations can also help residents understand what remedies or defenses may be available if a unit was rented without a compliant permit under § 122-5.
