Lynbrook, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 78 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 78-10
Revocation
Operative Text
A. Any room rental license issued under this chapter can be revoked at any time by the Village Board after a hearing open to the public for the violation of this chapter upon two weeks' written notice to the licensee, to be sent to the address shown upon the application at the time that the license is issued. Said hearing shall be conducted before a panel consisting of three Trustees appointed by the Mayor. The notice provided to the licensee shall state the issues to be heard and the fact that the license may be revoked. The licensee may be represented by counsel. The panel shall not be bound by the formal rules of evidence; however, all exhibits must be marked and made a part of the record. B. The determination by the panel to revoke a license may be appealed to the Lynbrook Board of Zoning Appeals within 30 days after the date that the written notice of revocation is served by certificated mail and regular first-class mail to the licensee and the attorney, if any, who represented the licensee at the hearing.
Section 78-10 of Lynbrook, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 78 establishes the process by which the Village Board may revoke a room rental license for violations of the chapter. Before revocation can occur, the licensee must receive at least two weeks' written notice and have the opportunity to appear at a public hearing before a three-Trustee panel appointed by the Mayor. If the panel decides to revoke the license, the licensee has 30 days from receipt of the written revocation notice to appeal that decision to the Lynbrook Board of Zoning Appeals.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 78-10, a room rental license in Lynbrook is not automatically permanent — it can be revoked if the Village Board finds a chapter violation following a formal public hearing. Compliant operators generally keep their contact information current with the Village so that any required two-weeks' written notice reaches them promptly, and they retain the ability to appear with legal counsel before the three-Trustee panel. Operators who receive an adverse revocation determination are aware that a 30-day window exists to file an appeal with the Lynbrook Board of Zoning Appeals, and they ensure that deadline is tracked carefully.

Section 78-10 provides a structured public process that governs when and how a room rental license in Lynbrook can be taken away, which directly affects the legal status of a rental unit. Tenants who believe their landlord is operating in violation of ch. 78 may find it relevant that the Village Board has authority to initiate a revocation hearing, and that these hearings are open to the public. Tenants with concerns about a licensed rental unit can contact the Village of Lynbrook directly or consult a tenant-rights organization to understand how this provision may relate to their housing situation.
