Freeport, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 128 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 128-28
Compliance with regulations required
Operative Text
No permit shall be issued under any application unless all provisions of the local laws and Code of Ordinances of the Village of Freeport, the laws and sanitary and housing regulations of the County of Nassau and the laws of the State of New York have been complied with.
Section 128-28 of Freeport's Code of Ordinances establishes that a rental or housing permit cannot be issued unless the applicant has satisfied all applicable legal requirements — including Freeport's own local laws and ordinances, Nassau County's sanitary and housing regulations, and New York State law. The rule functions as a compliance gateway: no permit moves forward until every layer of governing law has been met. This applies regardless of the type of permit being sought under Chapter 128.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 128-28, property owners and managers seeking a permit in the Village of Freeport must ensure full compliance across three tiers of law before a permit can be issued: Freeport's local ordinances, Nassau County's sanitary and housing regulations, and applicable New York State statutes. Compliant operators typically conduct a pre-application review to confirm that the property meets all relevant code requirements at each governmental level. Submitting an application without first addressing outstanding violations or deficiencies at any of these levels will generally result in the permit being withheld.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 128-28 means that any landlord operating a rental unit in Freeport should have obtained permits that were issued only after demonstrating compliance with local, county, and state housing and sanitary regulations. Tenants who have concerns about whether a landlord's permit was properly issued — or whether the property meets the underlying code standards — may contact the Village of Freeport's building or code enforcement office to inquire about permit status. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Nassau County housing law can also help residents understand what options may be available when a property appears to fall short of the standards referenced in § 128-28.
