Glen Cove, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 106 § 106-2
Rules and regulations
Operative Text
The Building Department Administrator shall have the power to promulgate such regulations as he or she deems necessary for carrying this chapter into effect, and such regulations shall have the same authority as though duly enacted by the City Council.
Section 106-2 of Glen Cove's Code of Ordinances grants the Building Department Administrator the authority to create and issue regulations needed to implement Chapter 106. Once issued, those administrative regulations carry the same legal weight as ordinances formally passed by the City Council, meaning they are binding on all parties subject to the chapter.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 106-2, the Building Department Administrator can issue binding regulations that supplement Chapter 106, and compliant operators generally stay current with any such administrative rules as they are issued. Because these regulations carry the same force as City Council ordinances, property managers typically monitor the Building Department for updates that may affect their obligations. Keeping records of compliance with both the base ordinance and any promulgated regulations is a common practice among operators in Glen Cove.

Section 106-2 means that rules issued by the Glen Cove Building Department Administrator under Chapter 106 are legally enforceable, not merely advisory, so tenants may have rights and protections under those administrative regulations in addition to the ordinance itself. If a landlord appears to be violating either the chapter or regulations promulgated under § 106-2, tenants can contact the Glen Cove Building Department directly to inquire about applicable rules. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Glen Cove housing law can also help residents understand which administrative regulations may be relevant to their situation.
