Waterford, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 104 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 104-13
Compliance with other regulations
Operative Text
The issuance of a permit pursuant to the provisions of this chapter shall not be deemed to waive compliance by the holder thereof, by the property owner or by any occupant of said court with any statute, rule or regulation of the State of New York or law or health regulation of the Town of Waterford or of the Saratoga County Department of Health.
Section 104-13 of Waterford, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 104 establishes that receiving a permit under this chapter does not release anyone from the obligation to follow other applicable laws. State of New York statutes, Town of Waterford ordinances and health regulations, and Saratoga County Department of Health rules all remain fully in effect regardless of permit status. In other words, a permit issued under this chapter is not a blanket authorization to disregard other legal requirements.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators who hold a permit under ch. 104 should understand that Section 104-13 makes clear the permit covers only what this chapter addresses — it does not substitute for compliance with New York State law, Town of Waterford regulations, or Saratoga County Department of Health requirements. Compliant property managers typically maintain awareness of all overlapping regulatory frameworks and ensure that permits, inspections, and health standards are each addressed separately. Holding a ch. 104 permit does not shield a property owner from enforcement actions brought under other applicable codes or regulations.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 104-13 affirms that occupants of a court subject to ch. 104 retain the protections of all other applicable laws, including New York State statutes and Saratoga County Department of Health regulations, independent of any permit issued under this chapter. If a condition at a property may violate a health or safety rule outside of ch. 104, tenants can generally raise that concern with the relevant agency — such as the Saratoga County Department of Health or the Town of Waterford — as a separate matter. Tenant-rights organizations can help identify which regulatory body is best positioned to address a particular concern under this provision.
