North Collins, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 103 § 103-50 establishes the conditions under which village inspectors may enter rental or other premises. When directed by the Village Board, inspectors are permitted to enter during normal business hours or, in emergencies, whenever necessary to protect the public interest. All parties with control over a property—including owners, agents, operators, and occupants—are required to allow authorized personnel access to every part of the premises within their control.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under ch. 103 § 103-50, property owners and their agents or operators are obligated to provide authorized village inspectors with access to all portions of the premises they control. Compliant operators generally ensure that keys, codes, or other means of access are available during normal business hours and that emergency access is not obstructed. Maintaining clear records of who manages access to various parts of a property can help demonstrate cooperation with inspection requirements.

Section 103-50 of the North Collins Code of Ordinances places the access obligation on all occupants, not just owners, meaning tenants who control a portion of the premises are also covered by this rule. Tenants generally have an interest in understanding the scope of when inspectors may lawfully enter—specifically, during normal business hours or in a declared emergency—and may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization if they have questions about whether an entry request falls within those parameters. If an inspection raises concerns about habitability or other conditions, tenants can document findings and explore complaint options through the Village or other applicable local channels.
