(5) Such form shall be signed by the owner of the dwelling, and the statements of such owner therein contained shall be verified under oath. C. Copy of lease and owner affidavit required. The rental registration application shall be accompanied by the following: (1) A copy of the lease or other rental occupancy agreement for the rental dwelling. (2) An affidavit, acknowledged by a notary public, from the owner confirming that: (a) The owner will not use Village facilities while the dwelling is rented; (b) The rental registration and lease provided to the Village are true and accurate; and (c) That there are no other rental agreements in place for the dwelling. D. Notice to advertise a dwelling required. Any owner who wants to rent a dwelling must first file a notice on a form provided by the Building Department for that purpose. This will serve to put the Village on notice that the owner is searching for a tenant and that the tenancy complies with the regulations set forth in this chapter.
Lake Success, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 83 § 83-4 establishes a mandatory rental registration process that must be completed before any dwelling is rented. Owners are required to submit a detailed registration form to the Building Department, accompanied by a copy of the lease and a notarized affidavit confirming the accuracy of the submission and the owner's agreement not to use Village facilities during the rental period. Only one registration per dwelling is allowed within any twelve-month period, and a separate notice must also be filed when an owner begins advertising a unit for rent.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Lake Success, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 83 § 83-4, compliant property owners file a rental registration form with the Building Department before a tenancy begins—not after. Operators generally prepare the form in duplicate, include all required occupant information, attach a copy of the lease, and have a notary public acknowledge the required owner affidavit. Owners also file a separate pre-advertising notice with the Building Department when they begin searching for a tenant, ensuring the Village is informed at each stage of the rental process.

Lake Success, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 83 § 83-4 requires that any dwelling be properly registered with the Building Department before a tenancy lawfully begins, which means tenants can inquire with the Village's Building Department to confirm whether a unit has a valid rental registration on file. If a registration was never filed, or if the accompanying affidavit or lease copy was not submitted, the tenancy may not be in compliance with local ordinance. Tenants who have questions about a unit's registration status may contact the Lake Success Building Department directly or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with Nassau County housing regulations.
