Mineola, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 300 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 300-53
Applicability
Operative Text
A. This Part 2 shall apply to the provisions and to premises within the scope of Part 1 . B. Notwithstanding any of the requirements of Part 1 , for premises, buildings, or structures which do not conform thereto, in whole or in part, and which require substantial alterations or installations to satisfy any such requirements, although in violation thereof, the enforcement officer may grant the owner or occupant thereof a reasonable period of time, up to one year, within which premises, buildings, or structures are to be made to conform, except if a building or structure is found to be dangerous and unsafe, in which event, prompt compliance with the requirements herein provided shall be undertaken and carried out. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to extend compliance with all the provisions of the Uniform Code.
Section 300-53 of Mineola's Code of Ordinances, Chapter 300, establishes that Part 2's rules apply to the same premises and provisions covered by Part 1. It also creates a limited grace period: when a property does not fully comply with Part 1's requirements and would need substantial work to do so, the enforcement officer has discretion to allow up to one year for the owner or occupant to bring the property into conformance. However, this grace period does not apply to buildings or structures deemed dangerous or unsafe, which must be remediated promptly, and the provision does not extend any deadlines under the New York Uniform Code.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 300-53, property owners and managers operating in Mineola should be aware that both Part 1 and Part 2 of Chapter 300 govern their premises. When a property requires substantial alterations to meet Part 1 standards, a compliant operator typically engages proactively with the enforcement officer to document the scope of work needed and to request any applicable compliance period before it expires. Owners of properties flagged as dangerous or unsafe cannot rely on the one-year grace period and are generally expected to undertake corrective action without delay.

Section 300-53 means that tenants living in premises covered by Chapter 300 of Mineola's Code are protected by both Part 1 and Part 2 of those regulations. If a property has known code deficiencies, tenants may inquire with the local enforcement officer about whether a compliance timeline has been granted under this provision and what remediation is expected. Tenants who believe their building poses a dangerous or unsafe condition may raise that concern with the enforcement officer, since § 300-53 explicitly removes the grace-period option for such properties and requires prompt corrective action.
