Restrictions upon transfers
Operative Text
No owner of any premises subject to the provisions of this chapter, upon whom any notice of a violation has been served pursuant to the provisions hereof or as to whom there shall be pending any proceeding or action at law arising from the violation or alleged violation of the provisions of this chapter, shall sell, transfer, grant, mortgage, lease or otherwise dispose of the premises concerned until compliance has been had with such notice and until any and all proceedings in any court with respect to the same shall have been finally determined, unless such owners shall furnish to the purchaser, grantee, transferee, mortgagee or lessee, prior to such sale, grant, transfer, mortgage or lease, a true copy of any such notice and a notice indicating the pendency of any such proceeding and at the same time give at least ten (10) days' notice to the Building Inspector of the Village of Bellport of the proposed sale, grant, transfer, mortgage or lease, together with the names and addresses of all parties thereto.
Bellport, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 13 § 13-6 restricts what property owners can do with premises that are under an active violation notice or involved in ongoing legal proceedings related to code violations. An owner generally cannot sell, transfer, mortgage, or lease such a property until the violation is resolved and all related court proceedings are concluded. However, the restriction can be satisfied without full resolution if the owner provides the incoming party with a copy of the violation notice and a notice of any pending proceedings, while also giving the Village of Bellport Building Inspector at least ten days' advance notice of the transaction along with the names and addresses of all parties involved.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators managing properties in Bellport subject to ch. 13 § 13-6 generally maintain records of any outstanding violation notices and pending legal proceedings before initiating any sale, transfer, mortgage, or lease. When a transaction must proceed before a violation is fully resolved, compliant operators typically prepare a true copy of the violation notice and a written statement of any pending proceedings to deliver to the incoming party, and simultaneously send the Building Inspector of the Village of Bellport at least ten days' advance written notice that includes the names and addresses of all parties to the transaction. Keeping documentation of these disclosures and notifications is a standard practice for demonstrating compliance with this provision.

Under Bellport, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 13 § 13-6, tenants entering into a lease on a property with an active violation notice or pending legal proceeding are entitled to receive a copy of that notice and a statement disclosing any ongoing proceedings before the lease is signed. If a tenant believes this disclosure was not provided as required, that omission may be relevant to any dispute or complaint involving the property. Tenant-rights organizations and local housing agencies can help tenants understand what disclosures they should have received and what general options exist when a landlord may not have followed the notice requirements of this provision.
