New Paltz Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 129 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 129-13
Applicability
Operative Text
The provisions of this article shall be applicable to all newly registered rental properties as of the effective date of this article. For those properties that are currently registered under the existing Chapter 129 of the Village Code, the provisions of this newly enacted Article II of Chapter 129 shall be applicable to those properties as of the date of the expiration of said property's current registration.
Section 129-13 of New Paltz Village Code Chapter 129 establishes when the requirements of Article II take effect for different categories of rental properties. Properties that are newly registered on or after the article's effective date are immediately subject to its provisions, while properties already registered under the prior version of Chapter 129 are given a transition period — the new rules apply to them only once their existing registration expires. This phased approach allows currently registered landlords to complete their existing registration term before the new obligations kick in.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 129-13, operators of rental properties that were already registered under the prior Chapter 129 framework are not required to comply with the new Article II requirements until their current registration period ends. Compliant operators generally track their registration expiration dates and prepare to meet the updated Article II standards before that date arrives, ensuring there is no gap in compliance. Landlords with newly registered properties, however, are expected to satisfy Article II requirements from the outset.

Section 129-13 determines which set of rules governs a rental property at any given time, which can affect what protections apply to a tenancy. If a property was already registered before Article II took effect, the new provisions may not yet apply until the landlord's registration renews — tenants can check with the Village of New Paltz or a local tenant-rights organization to confirm which rules currently govern their building. Understanding the applicable registration status can be relevant if a tenant needs to raise a compliance issue or file a concern with the appropriate local authority.
