Valatie, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 219 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 219-5
Conditions for issuance
Operative Text
A. The Village Clerk of the Village of Valatie shall issue a permit to be effective from the day of issuance to and including December 31 of that same year. B. This permit will not be issued until the Village Clerk has received: (1) A written application from the applicant. (2) The required fee as herein provided. (3) Approval of the application by the Columbia County Department of Health (or the New York State Department of Health District Office). (4) Approval by the Village Code Enforcement Official. (5) A resolution from the Village Board approving issuance of permit. C. This permit shall not be transferable or assignable.
Section 219-5 of Valatie's Code of Ordinances establishes the conditions under which the Village Clerk may issue a rental or occupancy permit. A permit runs from its date of issuance through December 31 of the same calendar year, meaning it must be renewed annually. Issuance requires a completed written application, payment of the applicable fee, health department approval from either the Columbia County or New York State Department of Health, sign-off from the Village Code Enforcement Official, and a formal resolution from the Village Board. Once issued, the permit belongs solely to the original applicant and cannot be transferred or assigned to another party.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 219-5, operators seeking a permit in Valatie generally ensure they submit a written application and the required fee well in advance of needing the permit, since issuance also depends on health department approval, Code Enforcement sign-off, and a Village Board resolution — each of which takes time. Because permits expire on December 31 each year, compliant operators typically plan for annual renewal rather than treating the permit as indefinitely valid. Operators also keep in mind that the permit is non-transferable, so a change in ownership or management would require a new application process rather than a simple reassignment.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 219-5 means that any rental or occupancy permit in Valatie must have gone through a multi-step approval process — including health department review and Village Board authorization — before it was lawfully issued. Tenants who have questions about whether a property holds a valid, current permit may contact the Village Clerk's office or the Village Code Enforcement Official, as these are the bodies responsible for permit records under § 219-5. Tenant-rights organizations or a housing attorney can help explain what options may be available if a property appears to be operating without a properly issued permit.
