(1) No new rental permit shall be issued unless and until the owner proves by competent evidence and upon inspection by the Enforcement Officer that the dangerous Substandard Condition has been remedied. (2) A rental permit shall be revoked indefinitely upon the second finding of a dangerous Substandard Condition within one year from the first.

Monroe Village Code of Ordinances ch. 158 § 158-7 establishes the grounds and procedures by which the Enforcement Officer may revoke a rental permit. Revocation can occur when a permit holder provides false information, violates chapter requirements, refuses inspections, or fails to correct substandard conditions. Tenants at the affected property must be notified by certified mail, and a $500 non-refundable administrative fee is charged to the permit holder upon revocation. Immediate revocation without prior notice is authorized when a dangerous substandard condition poses a clear and present danger to occupants.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Monroe Village Code ch. 158 § 158-7, compliant operators ensure that all permit applications and renewals contain accurate, complete information and that any substandard conditions identified in notices are corrected within the required timeframes. Operators who receive a notice of revocation should be aware that continuing to rent the property more than 48 hours after receiving that notice constitutes a municipal violation, and a $500 non-refundable administrative fee becomes due before any subsequent permit can be issued. Where a second dangerous substandard condition is found within one year of the first, the permit is revoked indefinitely and reinstatement requires approval from the Board of Trustees under whatever conditions it deems appropriate.

Monroe Village Code ch. 158 § 158-7 requires that tenants at an affected rental property be notified by certified mail when a rental permit is revoked, so occupants are not left uninformed about their housing status. If a permit is revoked due to a dangerous substandard condition, the Enforcement Officer has authority to act immediately to protect inhabitants, and no new permit may be issued until the condition is verified as remedied. Tenants who believe their landlord is operating without a valid permit or maintaining dangerous conditions may consider contacting the Monroe Village Enforcement Officer, consulting a local tenant-rights organization, or exploring available municipal complaint processes.
