Kings Point, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 122 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 122-7
Review of application
Operative Text
The Superintendent shall review each application for completeness and the legality of the proposed rental and, upon satisfaction of the completeness of the application, the legality of the rental, the payment of the required fee, and confirming that there is a legal certificate of occupancy for the proposed rental and that there are no outstanding violations on the property, whether or not a notice of notice of violation or a notice of appearance to the Village Justice Court has been issued, the Superintendent shall issue the permit.
Under Kings Point, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 122 § 122-7, the Village Superintendent is responsible for reviewing every rental permit application to confirm it is complete, that the proposed rental is legally permissible, that the required fee has been paid, that a valid certificate of occupancy exists for the rental unit, and that no outstanding violations are present on the property. Only after all of these conditions are satisfied may the Superintendent issue the rental permit. Outstanding violations can block permit issuance regardless of whether a formal notice of violation or a notice of appearance before the Village Justice Court has been issued.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators seeking a rental permit under ch. 122 § 122-7 generally ensure that their application is fully completed, that all required fees are submitted, and that the property holds a current, valid certificate of occupancy. Compliant operators also resolve any outstanding property violations before applying, since even violations that have not yet resulted in a formal notice or court appearance can prevent the Superintendent from issuing the permit. Proactively addressing code compliance issues before submitting an application is a common practice among operators who seek timely permit approval.

Section 122-7 of Kings Point's rental code establishes that a landlord must obtain a permit only after the Superintendent confirms the property has a legal certificate of occupancy and no outstanding violations. Tenants who have concerns about whether a rental unit was properly permitted may inquire with the Village about the permit status of their unit or contact a local tenant-rights organization for general guidance. If a property is found to lack a valid permit or certificate of occupancy, that fact may be relevant to any complaints or proceedings before the Village regarding the rental.
