Maybrook, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 149 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 149-2
Effect on other regulations
Operative Text
The provisions of this chapter shall supplement local laws, codes or regulations existing in the Village of Maybrook and the other statutes and regulations of authorities having jurisdiction thereto. Where a provision of this chapter is found to be in conflict with any provision of a local law, ordinance, code or regulation, the provision or requirement which is more restrictive or which establishes the higher standard shall prevail.
Section 149-2 of Maybrook's Code of Ordinances establishes how Chapter 149 interacts with other applicable laws and regulations. Rather than replacing existing local or state rules, this chapter layers on top of them. When any conflict arises between Chapter 149 and another law or regulation, whichever provision is stricter or sets the higher standard automatically takes precedence.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 149-2, property owners and managers operating in the Village of Maybrook must be aware that compliance with Chapter 149 does not necessarily satisfy all applicable obligations. Where other local ordinances, state statutes, or regulations impose stricter requirements than Chapter 149, those higher standards govern. Compliant operators generally review all overlapping regulatory frameworks—not just Chapter 149—to ensure they are meeting the most demanding applicable standard.

Section 149-2 means that tenants in Maybrook may be protected by whichever rule—whether from Chapter 149 or another local, state, or regulatory source—offers the greater protection. If a landlord claims compliance with one set of rules while a stricter standard exists under another, the stricter standard still applies. Tenants who believe a higher standard is being ignored can raise this provision as context when contacting local Village officials, a housing agency, or a tenant-rights organization for guidance.
