Operative Text
Every owner of a multiple dwelling within the Village shall, with respect to each such dwelling owned by him, submit to the Department of Housing between June 1 and July 1 of each year a separate written report as to the operating condition of the boilers, oil and/or gas burners, electrical heating equipment, compactors and devices connected therewith and fire and safety equipment, such as fire extinguishers, fire escapes and fire-warning systems and sprinkler systems contained in or used in connection with said multiple dwelling and its appurtenances. The reports shall specifically state compliance or lack of compliance and in what respect there is failure to comply with the provisions of this Housing Code or any other ordinances which may be applicable. The reports shall be filed within 30 days after the equipment has been inspected, and it shall be made and certified by persons, firms or corporations qualified to service the equipment involved. The owner shall submit similar reports with respect to elevators and all apparatus used in connection therewith, except that such reports shall be filed semiannually on January 15 and July 15 of each year.

Operators of multiple dwellings in Great Neck generally maintain compliance with ch. 321 § 321-43 by scheduling annual inspections of boilers, burners, electrical heating equipment, compactors, and fire and safety systems well before the June 1–July 1 submission window. Compliant operators ensure that inspections are performed and certified by qualified professionals and that the written report is filed with the Department of Housing within 30 days of the inspection date. For elevators and related apparatus, operators maintain a separate semiannual filing calendar, submitting certified reports to the Department of Housing by January 15 and July 15 each year. Each report should clearly document compliance status and describe any areas where equipment falls short of the Housing Code or other applicable ordinances.
