Newburgh, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 190 § 190-23
Reinspection
Operative Text
At the end of the period specified in the notice of violation or any extension thereof, it shall be the duty of the head of the code enforcement agency to make or cause to be made a reinspection of the dwelling, dwelling unit, rooming house, rooming unit or premises, and if compliance has not been established, appropriate legal action shall be instituted as specified in § 190-34 of this chapter, provided that additional notices of violation are not required.
Under Newburgh, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 190 § 190-23, once the deadline stated in a notice of violation expires—including any approved extension—the head of the code enforcement agency is required to conduct or arrange a follow-up inspection of the property. If that reinspection finds that the cited conditions have not been corrected, the agency must initiate legal action as outlined in § 190-34 of the same chapter. No additional notices of violation are required before that legal action can proceed.

Newburgh, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 190 § 190-23 establishes a firm reinspection trigger: once the compliance deadline in a notice of violation passes, a reinspection will occur automatically. Operators who manage properties subject to Newburgh's housing code generally ensure that all cited violations are fully corrected before that deadline—or any granted extension—expires. Because § 190-34 legal proceedings can begin immediately upon a failed reinspection without any further notice, documented proof of completed repairs is a standard part of compliant property management practice.

Section 190-23 of Newburgh's housing code gives tenants an important procedural protection: the code enforcement agency is obligated to reinspect a property once a violation notice deadline passes, and if problems remain unresolved, legal action under § 190-34 must follow without the need for additional notices. Tenants who believe a landlord has not corrected cited conditions may contact Newburgh's code enforcement agency to inquire about the status of a reinspection. Tenant-rights organizations in the Hudson Valley region can also help residents understand how this reinspection process works and what options may be available to them.
