Manorhaven, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 82 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 82-42
Duties of Attorney; remedies to be cumulative
Operative Text
A. The Village Attorney shall, upon complaint of the Building Inspector or upon his own motion, institute appropriate action to restrain, prevent, enjoin, abate, correct or remove such violation and take such other legal action as is necessary to carry out the terms and provisions of this chapter. B. The remedies provided for herein shall be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies provided by law; any and all remedies may be pursued concurrently or consecutively, and the pursuit of any remedy shall not be construed as an election of the waiver of the right to pursue any and all of the others.
Manorhaven, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 82 § 82-42 establishes that the Village Attorney is authorized to take legal action—such as seeking injunctions or abatement orders—to address violations of the chapter, either after receiving a complaint from the Building Inspector or on the Attorney's own initiative. The provision also makes clear that all available legal remedies can be used simultaneously or in sequence, and that choosing one remedy does not forfeit the right to pursue any other. This means enforcement is not limited to a single path or outcome.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Manorhaven, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 82 § 82-42, property owners and managers should be aware that the Village Attorney holds broad authority to pursue multiple forms of legal action—including injunctions, abatement orders, and other corrective measures—concurrently or one after another. Compliant operators generally address any Building Inspector concerns promptly, since a complaint from the Inspector can trigger Village Attorney action without further notice. Maintaining properties in accordance with chapter 82 reduces exposure to the layered enforcement mechanisms this provision authorizes.

Manorhaven, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 82 § 82-42 gives tenants an important backdrop: if a landlord is violating chapter 82, the Building Inspector can file a complaint that prompts the Village Attorney to seek legal remedies on behalf of the village. Tenants who believe a violation exists may consider contacting the Building Inspector's office to report conditions, which can set this enforcement process in motion. Tenant-rights organizations or legal aid services can help residents understand how this provision's cumulative-remedies framework may relate to their situation.
