Hamburg Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 182 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 182-4
Reports and assessments
Operative Text
The Code Enforcement Officer shall keep an account of all such work done and shall report to the Village Board all parcels of land upon which such work has been performed and the names of the owners of said parcels who have not paid for the cost of the work performed, and the Village Board shall thereupon order assessments upon such lands for the unpaid sums so reported.
Under Hamburg Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 182 § 182-4, the Code Enforcement Officer is required to maintain records of all work carried out under this chapter and to report to the Village Board any properties where the work was performed and whose owners have not paid the associated costs. Upon receiving that report, the Village Board is then required to place assessments—essentially charges attached to the land—against those properties for the unpaid amounts. This creates a formal municipal mechanism for recovering the costs of code-enforcement work directly from the affected parcels.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under ch. 182 § 182-4, property owners in Hamburg Village who have work performed on their parcels by the municipality are expected to pay the reported costs before the matter reaches the Village Board. Operators who leave costs unpaid risk having those amounts converted into assessments levied against their land, which can affect title and future transactions. Keeping current on any invoices or notices related to code-enforcement work is the general practice of a compliant property owner under this provision.

Hamburg Village Code ch. 182 § 182-4 governs how the municipality tracks and recovers costs for work done on private parcels, which is primarily a process between the Village and the property owner. Tenants should be aware that assessments placed on a property can signal ongoing code-enforcement activity at their residence, which may be relevant to habitability concerns. Tenant-rights organizations or a local housing authority can help tenants understand how municipal enforcement actions under this provision might relate to their living conditions.
