Rockville Centre, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 132 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 132-14
Review of determination
Operative Text
Any person deeming himself aggrieved by any order or direction of the Village Board may have the determination reviewed by the Supreme Court in the manner prescribed by Article 78 of the Civil Practice Act.
Section 132-14 of Rockville Centre's Code of Ordinances establishes a formal legal pathway for challenging decisions made by the Village Board. Any person who believes they have been harmed or treated unfairly by a Village Board order or directive may seek judicial review through New York's Supreme Court under Article 78 of the Civil Practice Act. This provision ensures that administrative determinations are not final and unreviewable, but are instead subject to oversight by the courts.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 132-14, property owners and managers should be aware that any Village Board order or direction issued against them — such as a compliance directive or enforcement determination — can be challenged in court. A compliant operator generally keeps thorough records of all Village Board communications and orders, as such documentation is foundational to any Article 78 proceeding. Understanding that this review mechanism exists helps operators assess their options when they believe a Board determination was improper.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 132-14 gives tenants and other affected parties the right to seek judicial review of Village Board orders or directions they believe were wrongful or harmful. This review is pursued through New York Supreme Court via an Article 78 proceeding, a standard mechanism for challenging government agency decisions in New York. Tenants who believe a Village Board determination has adversely affected them may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid service to understand how this review process works.
