Poquott, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 123 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 123-11
Revocation of permit
Operative Text
A. The Code Enforcement Official may recommend to the Board of Trustees that a rental occupancy permit and rental dwelling registration number should be vacated where he or she finds that the holder of the rental permit has caused, permitted, suffered or allowed to exist and remain, upon the premises for which the rental occupancy permit was issued, a violation of the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, Poquott Village Code, or any unsafe or unsanitary condition exists for a period of 15 days or more after written notice has been given to the holder of the rental occupancy permit or the managing agent of such rental dwelling, or in any such case where the owner refuses access to the Code Enforcement Officer for an inspection or certification of compliance as required in § 123-7B(3) of this article. B. Upon the recommendation of the Code Enforcement Official and after written notice by certified mail to the owner, the Poquott Village Board of Trustees shall hold a public hearing on such recommendation within 60 days after receiving the recommendation, and after such hearing the Board of Trustees shall make written findings, a conclusion and a decision.
Under Poquott, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 123 § 123-11, a rental occupancy permit and registration number can be revoked through a two-step process. First, the Code Enforcement Official may recommend revocation to the Board of Trustees when a permit holder has allowed a violation of the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code, the Poquott Village Code, or an unsafe or unsanitary condition to persist for 15 or more days after written notice, or when an owner refuses to allow an inspection. Second, the Board of Trustees must hold a public hearing within 60 days of receiving the recommendation—after proper written notice by certified mail to the owner—and then issue written findings, a conclusion, and a decision.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating under ch. 123 § 123-11 generally maintain compliance by promptly addressing any code violations or unsafe and unsanitary conditions within the 15-day window that follows written notice from the Code Enforcement Official. Compliant operators also ensure that access for inspections and compliance certifications required under § 123-7B(3) is never refused, since denial of access is itself a basis for a revocation recommendation. If a revocation recommendation is made, the owner will receive certified mail notice and an opportunity to be heard at a public hearing before the Board of Trustees issues any final decision.

Section 123-11 of the Poquott Village Code establishes a formal process through which a landlord's rental occupancy permit can be revoked when code violations, unsafe conditions, or inspection refusals go unaddressed. Tenants who believe their dwelling has persistent violations may find it useful to document conditions and contact the Poquott Code Enforcement Official, who has the authority to initiate the recommendation process. Tenants can also reach out to local tenant-rights organizations or consult an attorney to understand how the public hearing process under § 123-11 might relate to their housing situation.
