Lackawanna, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 177 § 177-18
Director's regulations
Operative Text
The Director is authorized to promulgate regulations consistent with the provisions of this chapter in order to carry out the objectives of this legislation.
Section 177-18 of Lackawanna's Code of Ordinances grants the Director the authority to create and issue administrative regulations, provided those regulations align with the broader requirements of Chapter 177. This rule-making power is intended to help the Director implement and fulfill the goals of the housing legislation. The provision does not itself establish specific tenant or landlord obligations, but it enables the Director to do so through subsequent regulations.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 177-18, the Director may issue binding administrative regulations that supplement Chapter 177, meaning property owners and managers should monitor any regulations the Director promulgates to ensure their practices remain compliant. Operators generally stay informed of official announcements from the Director's office and update their procedures whenever new regulations are issued under this authority. Because the scope of regulations can expand over time, maintaining awareness of changes under Chapter 177 is a routine part of compliant property management in Lackawanna.

Section 177-18 establishes that the Director holds formal rule-making authority under Chapter 177, which means tenant protections and procedures may be shaped not only by the ordinance itself but also by regulations the Director issues. Tenants can request copies of any regulations promulgated under this provision from the Director's office to understand what rules apply to their housing situation. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Lackawanna's local ordinances can help residents track regulatory changes made under § 177-18 and identify relevant enforcement or complaint pathways.
