An application for a rental permit for a residential rental property shall be on forms supplied by the Village of Pittsford, which forms shall include a residential rental real property condition verification which, among other things, certifies that the subject residential rental property fully complies with all of the provisions of the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, Pittsford Village Code and any other applicable codes and/or regulations, and which forms shall be signed and sworn to by the owner of such residential rental property prior to the rental or occupancy thereof. The owner of residential rental property which is currently being rented at the time of the filing of this chapter with the New York Department of State shall file such application within 45 days of such filing with the Department of State.
Section 154-6 of Pittsford's Code of Ordinances establishes the process for obtaining a rental permit for residential rental property in the Village of Pittsford. Owners must complete a Village-supplied application form that includes a condition verification certifying the property complies with the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, the Pittsford Village Code, and any other applicable codes or regulations. The form must be signed and sworn to by the property owner before the property is rented or occupied, and owners of properties already being rented at the time the chapter was filed with the New York Department of State had 45 days from that filing date to submit their applications.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 154-6 of Pittsford's Code of Ordinances, compliant residential rental property owners obtain the required application forms directly from the Village of Pittsford and complete the residential rental real property condition verification included in those forms. Operators generally ensure the property meets all requirements of the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code and the Pittsford Village Code before signing and swearing to the application, since the certification attests to full compliance. The signed application is submitted before any rental or occupancy begins, and owners of properties that were already rented when the chapter took effect were required to file within the 45-day window specified in § 154-6.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 154-6 of Pittsford's Code of Ordinances requires that a landlord certify, under oath, that a residential rental property complies with applicable fire prevention, building, and local codes before renting or allowing occupancy. This sworn certification is part of the Village's rental permit process, meaning tenants can look to whether a valid permit was obtained as a baseline indicator of a property's regulatory standing. Tenants who have questions about whether their rental property holds a proper permit may contact the Village of Pittsford directly or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization for general guidance on how permit status relates to their housing situation.
