Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 128-52, compliant property operators generally provide adequate sanitary containers for all units, ensure that building interiors and exterior grounds are kept clean and free of accumulated waste, and take steps to prevent garbage from being left in shared hallways, stairways, or fire escapes in multi-unit buildings. Operators also store any flammable materials safely and coordinate garbage and refuse disposal in accordance with Village of LeRoy collection regulations. Routine inspections of common areas and exterior property can help demonstrate ongoing compliance with this provision.
