Under Highland Falls Code ch. 122 § 122-42, property owners and managers who allow tenants to keep pets generally take steps to ensure that lease terms or house rules address proper animal containment. Compliant operators typically confirm that common areas and the property grounds do not become spaces where animals run unrestrained. Maintaining clear pet policies that align with § 122-42 helps demonstrate that the property is being managed in accordance with local housing standards.
