Baxter Estates, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 146 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 146-5
Owner or designated agent
Operative Text
An application hereunder shall be executed by the record owner of the premises or by an agent designated, in writing, by said record owner, for the purposes of this chapter. Said record owner or agent, as the case may be, shall be the person upon whom service shall be made of any written violation or notice of violation under this Code. Where a record owner maintains residence outside of the County of Nassau, State of New York, such record owner, as a condition of any permit hereunder, shall designate a person with an office and mailing address within the County of Nassau as the agent for such premises.
Section 146-5 of Baxter Estates Code ch. 146 establishes who may submit applications under this chapter and who is responsible for receiving official notices. Applications must be signed by the property's record owner or a written-designated agent. When a record owner lives outside Nassau County, New York, the owner must appoint a local agent—someone with an office and mailing address within Nassau County—as a condition of obtaining any permit under this chapter.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 146-5, property owners and managers should ensure that any permit application is executed by the record owner or a properly designated agent whose authority is documented in writing. If the record owner resides outside Nassau County, designating a Nassau County-based agent with a local office and mailing address is a prerequisite for permit issuance—not an optional step. Operators should keep that written designation current, since the designated agent (or the record owner directly) is the party on whom violation notices will be formally served.

Section 146-5 of ch. 146 defines who is legally responsible for receiving violation notices related to a rental property in Baxter Estates. Knowing whether a local agent has been properly designated can be relevant when a tenant or enforcement authority needs to deliver or track official notices about code violations. Tenants who believe a property is operating without a required local agent, or who have questions about how violations are being handled, may contact the relevant Baxter Estates municipal office or consult a tenant-rights organization for general guidance.
