Lyons, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 236 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 236-13
Inspections and operating permits
Operative Text
Rental units shall be subject to operating permits and/or periodic inspections as required by Chapter 120 , Building Code Administration and Enforcement, and/or Chapter 300 , Zoning, of the Town Code.
Under Lyons, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 236 § 236-13, rental units in the town are subject to operating permits and periodic inspections as governed by the town's Building Code Administration and Enforcement rules (Chapter 120) and Zoning regulations (Chapter 300). The provision ties rental housing oversight to these two existing regulatory frameworks, meaning a rental unit must meet the permitting and inspection standards set out in those chapters. This creates a layered compliance structure where rental housing is not only governed by Chapter 236 but also by the town's broader building and zoning codes.

Compliant operators generally ensure that all required permits are obtained and kept current, and that units are made available for any periodic inspections called for under those chapters. Maintaining records of permits and inspection results is a practice commonly associated with ongoing compliance under this framework.
