Amendments
Operative Text
The Town Board may, on its own initiative or on petition, amend, supplement or repeal the provisions of this chapter in conformity with applicable law after public notice and hearing.
Section 80-11 of New Berlin, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 80 establishes the process by which the Town Board can change the local housing regulations covered by this chapter. Changes—whether additions, modifications, or outright repeals—can be initiated by the Board itself or in response to a petition from outside parties, but any such change must follow applicable law and must be preceded by public notice and a public hearing. This provision ensures that the regulatory framework is not altered without an opportunity for community input.

Section 80-11 gives tenants and community members a formal avenue to influence the rules in Chapter 80 by submitting a petition to the Town Board requesting an amendment, supplement, or repeal. Because any change requires public notice and a hearing, tenants have an opportunity to attend and provide comment before new rules take effect. Tenant-rights organizations can often help residents understand how to participate in the public hearing process or how to organize a petition under this provision.
