Term
Operative Text
All permits issued pursuant to this article shall be valid for a period of two years from the date of the Building and Housing Department's receipt of a completed application.
Under Patchogue, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 336 § 336-7, rental permits issued under this article have a fixed lifespan of two years, beginning on the date the Building and Housing Department receives a completed application. Once that two-year window closes, the permit is no longer valid. The rule establishes a clear, time-limited authorization rather than an open-ended or indefinitely renewable one.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under ch. 336 § 336-7, a compliant property owner tracks the two-year validity period tied to the date the Building and Housing Department received the completed application — not the date of issuance or approval. Operators generally maintain records of that receipt date and initiate renewal processes well before expiration to avoid a lapse in permitted status. Keeping documentation of the original application submission helps demonstrate compliance if the permit's validity period is ever questioned.
