Glen Cove, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 168 § 168-58
Scope; limitation
Operative Text
Nothing contained in this article shall be interpreted to require inspection or registration of any multiple dwelling located in the City of Glen Cove which is inspected annually by the Nassau County Fire Marshal pursuant to the provisions of the Nassau County Fire Prevention Ordinance, as amended.
Section 168-58 of Glen Cove's Code of Ordinances carves out an exemption from the city's multiple-dwelling inspection and registration requirements. Specifically, any multiple dwelling that is already subject to annual inspection by the Nassau County Fire Marshal under the Nassau County Fire Prevention Ordinance is not also required to comply with the city's inspection and registration article. The provision functions as a limiting clause, preventing duplicative regulatory burdens on certain properties.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 168-58, operators of multiple dwellings in Glen Cove that are already inspected annually by the Nassau County Fire Marshal may not be subject to the city's inspection and registration requirements under this article. Compliant operators in this category typically maintain documentation of their Nassau County Fire Marshal inspections to demonstrate that the exemption applies to their property. Confirming whether a specific property qualifies for this carve-out generally involves reviewing both the Nassau County Fire Prevention Ordinance and the city's records.

Section 168-58 defines the outer boundary of Glen Cove's multiple-dwelling inspection and registration rules, which can affect what oversight applies to a building where a tenant lives. If a building is covered by annual Nassau County Fire Marshal inspections, the city's separate inspection and registration requirements under this article do not apply — though the county-level fire safety inspections still occur. Tenants who have questions about which inspection regime covers their building may find it useful to contact the Nassau County Fire Marshal's office or a local tenant-rights organization for general information.
