Peekskill, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 332 § 332-2
Nonapplicability
Operative Text
This chapter shall not apply to premises which are not within the purpose and scope of the Uniform Code.
Section 332-2 of Peekskill's Code of Ordinances establishes that Chapter 332 does not cover every property in the city — specifically, it excludes premises that fall outside the purpose and scope of the Uniform Code. In other words, if a property or type of occupancy is not addressed by the Uniform Code, the regulations in Chapter 332 simply do not apply to it. This creates a defined boundary for the chapter's reach based on the Uniform Code's own scope.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 332-2, property owners and managers should be aware that Chapter 332's requirements only attach to premises that fall within the Uniform Code's purpose and scope. Operators of properties that may sit outside that scope — such as certain exempt building types or uses — generally confirm their status by reviewing the Uniform Code's applicability provisions. Keeping documentation of a property's classification can help demonstrate whether Chapter 332 obligations apply.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 332-2 means that the protections and rules established in Chapter 332 extend only to housing that falls within the Uniform Code's defined scope. Tenants who believe their dwelling should be covered by Chapter 332 can review the Uniform Code's scope provisions to understand whether their premises qualify. Local tenant-rights organizations or a housing counselor can help clarify whether a particular type of housing falls within or outside the Uniform Code's reach.
