A nonrefundable permit application fee shall be paid, upon filing an application for a rental occupancy permit, in accordance with a fee schedule set by resolution of the Village Board from time to time, for: (1) One dwelling unit. (2) Two dwelling units. (3) Three dwelling units. (4) Four dwelling units. (5) More than four dwelling units. B.

Babylon Village Code ch. 281 § 281-6 establishes a nonrefundable fee that must be paid when applying for a rental occupancy permit, with the fee amount varying based on the number of dwelling units in the property (from one unit up to more than four units), as set periodically by the Village Board. The fee schedule is not fixed in the ordinance itself but is determined by Village Board resolution. Qualifying not-for-profit housing development corporations organized under New York State law that provide housing for income-eligible senior citizens or other designated special populations are exempt from these fees.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Babylon Village Code ch. 281 § 281-6, operators of rental properties are generally expected to pay the applicable nonrefundable permit application fee at the time of filing for a rental occupancy permit, with the amount depending on how many dwelling units the property contains. Because the Village Board sets the fee schedule by resolution and may update it periodically, compliant operators typically confirm the current fee amount with the Village before submitting an application. Operators affiliated with qualifying not-for-profit housing development corporations serving income-eligible senior citizens or special populations should be prepared to demonstrate that status in order to claim the fee waiver.

Babylon Village Code ch. 281 § 281-6 is part of the rental occupancy permit system, which is designed to ensure that rental units meet local standards before occupancy. Tenants can check whether their landlord has obtained the required permit, since the fee and application process under this section are prerequisites to lawful rental occupancy in the village. Tenants who have questions about permit compliance or their housing rights may contact the Village of Babylon directly or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization for general guidance.
