Manorhaven, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 82 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 82-41
Penalties for offenses
Operative Text
Any person, association, firm or corporation which violates any provision of this chapter or assists in the violation of any provision of this chapter shall be guilty of a violation punishable by a fine not exceeding $1,000 or imprisonment for a period not to exceed 15 days, or both, for conviction of a first offense; for conviction of a second offense, both of which were committed within a period of five years, punishable by a fine of not less than $1,000 nor more than $2,000 or imprisonment for a period not to exceed 15 days, or both; and upon conviction of a third or subsequent offense, all of which were committed within a period of five years, punishable by a fine of not less than $2,000 nor more than $3,000 or imprisonment for a period not to exceed 15 days, or both. Each week's continued violation shall constitute a separate additional violation.
Section 82-41 of Manorhaven's Code of Ordinances Chapter 82 establishes a graduated penalty structure for violations of the chapter's rent-related provisions. A first offense may result in a fine of up to $1,000, up to 15 days of imprisonment, or both. Repeat offenses within a five-year window carry higher mandatory minimums, with fines ranging from $1,000–$2,000 for a second offense and $2,000–$3,000 for a third or subsequent offense. Importantly, each week that a violation continues is treated as a separate, additional offense under this section.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers subject to Manorhaven Code Chapter 82 should be aware that § 82-41 imposes escalating financial and criminal exposure for each violation of the chapter's requirements. Because every week of continued non-compliance counts as a distinct additional violation, operators generally act promptly to correct any identified deficiency rather than allowing it to persist. Maintaining clear records of corrective actions taken can help demonstrate good-faith compliance efforts if a question about a prior offense arises within the five-year lookback window.

Under § 82-41 of Manorhaven's Code Chapter 82, tenants should know that landlords who violate the chapter's provisions face meaningful penalties, including fines and potential imprisonment, and that ongoing violations accumulate week by week. If a landlord's non-compliance continues over time, each additional week may be treated as a separate offense, which can increase the pressure for correction. Tenants who believe a violation is occurring may consider contacting the Village of Manorhaven directly, consulting a local tenant-rights organization, or seeking guidance from a housing attorney familiar with Nassau County municipal code enforcement.
