Lake Grove, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 127-8
Revocation of permit
Operative Text
A. The Code Enforcement Officer may recommend to the Building Department that a rental permit should be revoked where he or she finds that the holder of the rental permit has caused, permitted, suffered or allowed to exist and remain upon the premises for which the rental permit was issued for a period of 30 days or more after written notice has been given to the holder of the rental permit or the managing agent of such rental dwelling unit, a violation of the New York State Uniform Code, a violation of this chapter or another chapter of the Lake Grove Village Code or in any such case where the property owner refuses access to the Code Enforcement Officer for an inspection as required by this chapter. B. Upon the recommendation of the Code Enforcement Officer or Building Department and after written notice by certified mail to the owner, the Lake Grove Village Board of Trustees shall hold a public hearing on such recommendation within 60 days after receiving the recommendation, and after such hearing the Board of Trustees shall make written findings, a conclusion and a decision.
Under Lake Grove, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 § 127-8, a rental permit may be revoked when a permit holder has allowed a code violation to persist for 30 or more days after receiving written notice, or when a property owner refuses to allow a required inspection. The process begins with a recommendation from the Code Enforcement Officer to the Building Department, followed by a public hearing before the Lake Grove Village Board of Trustees, which must be held within 60 days of receiving the recommendation. After the hearing, the Board of Trustees issues written findings, a conclusion, and a formal decision on whether to revoke the permit.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators subject to Lake Grove, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 § 127-8 generally stay in compliance by addressing any written notices of code violations—whether under the New York State Uniform Code or the Lake Grove Village Code—within the 30-day window before a revocation recommendation can be made. Compliant operators also ensure that the Code Enforcement Officer is granted access to the property for any inspections required under this chapter, since refusing access is itself a basis for a revocation recommendation. Keeping records of corrective actions taken in response to written notices can be important documentation if a public hearing before the Board of Trustees is ever convened.

Under Lake Grove, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 § 127-8, tenants living in a rental unit where the landlord has ignored code violations or refused required inspections may have grounds to bring those conditions to the attention of the Code Enforcement Officer, which can trigger the permit revocation process. If a revocation recommendation is made, a public hearing before the Lake Grove Village Board of Trustees must be held within 60 days, providing a formal venue where concerns about the property's conditions may be part of the record. Tenants seeking to understand how this process may affect their housing situation can consult a local tenant-rights organization or legal aid service for general guidance on their options.
