Operative Text
It is prohibited to accumulate or store on residential premises, except in approved locations, any highly flammable or explosive matter, such as paints, volatile oils, cleaning fluids and similar materials, or any combustible refuse liable to spontaneous combustion, such as waste paper, boxes, rags or similar materials; or to accumulate or store materials on fire escapes or stairs, in stairways or passageways, at doors or windows, or in any other locations where in the event of fire such materials may obstruct egress of occupants or interfere with fire-fighting operations.
LeRoy Village Code of Ordinances ch. 128 § 128-22 prohibits the accumulation or storage of highly flammable, explosive, or combustible materials—such as paints, volatile oils, cleaning fluids, waste paper, rags, and similar items—on residential premises except in approved locations. The rule also bars placing any materials on fire escapes, stairs, stairways, passageways, doorways, or windows where they could block occupants from exiting or hinder firefighting efforts. The provision is designed to keep evacuation routes clear and reduce fire hazards in residential buildings.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating under LeRoy Village Code ch. 128 § 128-22 generally maintain designated, approved storage areas for flammable or combustible materials and ensure those areas are clearly communicated to occupants. Compliant operators routinely inspect fire escapes, stairways, passageways, and exit points to confirm they remain free of stored materials that could impede egress or firefighting. Lease terms and building rules that reflect these storage restrictions help establish consistent expectations across all units.

Under LeRoy Village Code ch. 128 § 128-22, tenants have an interest in knowing that their building's fire escapes, stairways, and passageways must be kept clear of stored materials, and that flammable or combustible items may only be kept in approved locations. If a tenant observes violations—such as blocked exits or improperly stored flammable materials—they may report the condition to the local code enforcement or fire marshal's office. Tenant-rights organizations can help residents understand what remedies or complaint processes may be available in response to ongoing violations.
