Manorhaven, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 82 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 82-6
Existing remedies for unsafe buildings
Operative Text
Nothing in this chapter shall be deemed to abolish or impair existing remedies of the Village of Manorhaven or its officers or agencies relating to the removal or demolition of any buildings which are deemed to be dangerous, unsafe or unsanitary.
Manorhaven Code of Ordinances Chapter 82, Section 82-6 makes clear that the rules established in Chapter 82 do not eliminate or weaken any pre-existing legal tools the Village of Manorhaven, its officers, or its agencies already had to address buildings found to be dangerous, unsafe, or unsanitary. In other words, the chapter adds to—rather than replaces—the Village's authority to pursue removal or demolition of problem structures. All prior remedies remain fully intact alongside whatever Chapter 82 provides.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Manorhaven Code ch. 82 § 82-6, property owners should be aware that the Village retains the full range of enforcement tools it possessed before Chapter 82 was enacted, meaning compliance with Chapter 82 alone does not shield a property from action under other Village ordinances or legal authorities. Operators of buildings that may be considered dangerous, unsafe, or unsanitary can face removal or demolition proceedings drawn from multiple legal sources. Compliant operators generally maintain their properties to a standard that avoids triggering any of these overlapping enforcement mechanisms.

Section 82-6 of Manorhaven's Code of Ordinances signals that tenants living in buildings that may be dangerous, unsafe, or unsanitary have the benefit of a broader enforcement framework—the Village and its officers can draw on remedies beyond Chapter 82 itself to address hazardous conditions. This means that if a building is not addressed under one legal avenue, the Village may still act under another. Tenants who believe their building poses safety or sanitation concerns may consider contacting the Village's relevant officers or agencies directly, or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization to understand what reporting options may be available.
