Operators of rental properties with three or more units in Malone should be aware that ch. 44A § 44A-7 establishes a mandatory three-year inspection cycle administered by the Code Enforcement Officer. Compliant operators typically maintain their properties in accordance with the New York State Uniform Fire Prevention and Building Code so that inspections proceed without findings of violation. Landlords who prefer inspections outside normal village business hours may request that accommodation, understanding that an additional charge — set by resolution of the Mayor and Board of Trustees — will apply.
