Mineola, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 300 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 300-3
Scope
Operative Text
This chapter shall be applicable to the following: A. Lots, plots, or parcels of land on which are located buildings devoted to residential use or occupancy, mixed-occupancy buildings or accessory structures. B. Buildings devoted to residential use or occupancy, including one- and two-family dwellings and multiple dwellings, mixed-occupancy buildings and accessory structures. Migrant housing shall be governed solely by Chapter F of the Uniform Code.
Mineola, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 300 § 300-3 defines the reach of the village's property maintenance chapter, applying it to residential land and buildings — including single-family homes, two-family homes, and multi-unit dwellings — as well as mixed-use buildings and accessory structures. One notable carve-out exists: migrant housing is not covered by this chapter and is instead regulated exclusively under Chapter F of the New York State Uniform Code. The scope provision sets the foundation for which properties are subject to all subsequent requirements in Chapter 300.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Mineola, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 300 § 300-3, operators of residential properties — from single-family homes to multi-unit buildings — as well as mixed-use properties and accessory structures, are generally expected to understand that this chapter's maintenance and occupancy standards apply to their holdings. Compliant operators typically assess whether each property they manage falls within this defined scope before applying the chapter's requirements. Those managing migrant housing should be aware that Chapter F of the Uniform Code, not Chapter 300, governs those facilities.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Mineola, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 300 § 300-3 establishes that tenants living in a wide range of residential settings — including apartments in multi-family buildings, units in mixed-use buildings, and occupants of accessory structures — are covered by the protections and standards set out in Chapter 300. Tenants who believe their housing conditions fall under this chapter's scope may raise relevant violations through the village's code enforcement process or consult a tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options. Migrant housing residents should note that their housing is governed by a separate framework under Chapter F of the Uniform Code rather than this chapter.
