Mount Kisco, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 75 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 75-2
Definitions
Operative Text
For the purpose of this chapter, the following words and phrases shall have the meanings respectively ascribed to them by this section: BUILDING Any improved real property located within the Village of Mount Kisco. OWNER Any individual or individuals, partnership or corporation, similar type of business organization or proprietary interest, whether or not for profit or otherwise, in whose name title to a building is vested. RENTAL PROPERTY Includes all buildings containing residential units which are either rented, leased, let or hired out to be occupied which shall be limited to two-family, multifamily, or mixed used (commercial-residential). This definition shall not be deemed to include cooperative apartments.
Section 75-2 of Mount Kisco's Code of Ordinances Chapter 75 establishes the foundational definitions that govern the rest of the chapter. Under this provision, a 'building' covers any improved real property within the Village of Mount Kisco, an 'owner' encompasses individuals, partnerships, corporations, or similar entities holding title, and 'rental property' refers to two-family, multifamily, or mixed-use residential buildings that are rented or leased out. Notably, cooperative apartments are explicitly excluded from the definition of rental property under § 75-2.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating within the Village of Mount Kisco should be aware that Chapter 75 § 75-2 defines who qualifies as an 'owner' broadly, capturing not just individual titleholders but also partnerships, corporations, and similar business entities. Operators of two-family, multifamily, or mixed-use buildings that include rented residential units generally fall within the 'rental property' definition and are subject to the chapter's requirements. Those whose holdings consist solely of cooperative apartments should note that § 75-2 expressly excludes cooperatives from the rental property definition.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants living in two-family, multifamily, or mixed-use buildings in Mount Kisco should know that their residence likely falls within the 'rental property' definition established by § 75-2, which means the protections and obligations set out in Chapter 75 may apply to their housing situation. Residents of cooperative apartments, however, are excluded from this definition under § 75-2 and would not be covered by the chapter's provisions. Tenants seeking to understand how these definitions affect their rights can consult local tenant-rights organizations or review the full text of Chapter 75 of the Mount Kisco Code of Ordinances.
