Mamaroneck Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 222 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 222-7
Availability of additional remedies
Operative Text
Notwithstanding any of the provisions of this chapter, nothing herein set forth shall be construed to preclude an individual from proceeding in accordance with the provisions of any other statute dealing with unlawful discriminatory practice, nor shall an individual be barred from proceeding in the Village Justice Court based upon a violation of this chapter.
Section 222-7 of Mamaroneck Village's Code of Ordinances establishes that the remedies available under Chapter 222 are not the only options for addressing violations. A person affected by conduct covered by this chapter may also pursue claims under other laws that prohibit unlawful discriminatory practices, and may bring a case in Village Justice Court. In other words, the chapter's own enforcement mechanisms exist alongside, not instead of, other legal avenues.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 222-7, property owners and managers should understand that compliance with Chapter 222 does not shield them from liability under separate anti-discrimination statutes at the state or federal level. A compliant operator generally ensures that their practices satisfy not only the local ordinance but also any overlapping fair-housing or human-rights laws that may apply. Awareness of this cumulative exposure is a standard part of responsible property management in Mamaroneck Village.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 222-7 makes clear that tenants are not limited to a single enforcement path when a violation of Chapter 222 occurs. A tenant may pursue remedies through Village Justice Court, file a complaint under a separate anti-discrimination statute, or explore both avenues, depending on the circumstances. Tenant-rights organizations can help individuals understand which combination of remedies may be available to them under this provision and related laws.
