Montour Falls, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 115 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 115-8
Registry
Operative Text
The Code Enforcement Officer shall maintain a registry of properties registered pursuant to Chapter 114 of the Village Code, and those dwelling units for which a permit has been issued pursuant to this chapter, whether such permit remains effective, and the expiration date of such permit.
Section 115-8 of the Montour Falls Code of Ordinances requires the village's Code Enforcement Officer to keep an official registry tracking two categories of information: properties registered under Chapter 114 of the Village Code, and dwelling units that have been issued rental permits under Chapter 115. The registry must also record whether each permit is currently active and when it expires. This creates a centralized, publicly accountable record of rental housing compliance in the village.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 115-8, the Code Enforcement Officer maintains the official registry that reflects a property's registration and permit status, meaning that a landlord's compliance actions—registering under Chapter 114 and obtaining a permit under Chapter 115—will be reflected in that record. Operators who keep their registrations and permits current generally appear in good standing in the registry. Allowing a permit to lapse without renewal may result in the registry showing an expired or ineffective permit, which could affect a property's compliance status.

Section 115-8 establishes that the Code Enforcement Officer must maintain a registry showing whether a rental dwelling unit holds a valid permit and when that permit expires. Tenants can use this registry as a resource to verify whether their unit is properly permitted under Chapter 115 and registered under Chapter 114. If a unit appears to lack a valid permit, tenants may wish to contact the village's Code Enforcement Office or consult a tenant-rights organization to understand what options may be available.
