Mount Kisco, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 72 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 72-48
Penalties for offenses
Operative Text
Any person committing an offense against any provision of this chapter shall be punishable as provided in § 1-17A of this Code.
Section 72-48 of Mount Kisco's rental regulations establishes that anyone who violates any part of Chapter 72 is subject to punishment under the general penalty provision found at § 1-17A of the Mount Kisco Code of Ordinances. Rather than setting its own specific fine or sanction, this section cross-references the municipality's standard penalty framework, which governs the consequences for code violations. The practical effect is that Chapter 72 offenses carry whatever penalties § 1-17A prescribes for municipal code violations generally.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating under Mount Kisco's Chapter 72 should be aware that § 72-48 ties any violation of the chapter's rental regulations to the penalty structure defined in § 1-17A of the Code of Ordinances. Compliant operators typically maintain thorough records of their practices and ensure all requirements of Chapter 72 are met to avoid exposure to those penalties. Reviewing § 1-17A alongside Chapter 72 gives a complete picture of the consequences that can follow a finding of non-compliance.

Under § 72-48, tenants should know that violations of Mount Kisco's Chapter 72 rental regulations are not consequence-free for landlords — offenders are subject to punishment as set out in § 1-17A of the Code of Ordinances.

Understanding both § 72-48 and the referenced § 1-17A can help tenants assess what remedies the local code makes available.
