A copy of this Part 1 and plan, together with a copy of Executive Order 11083, Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, and copies of state and local fair housing laws shall be kept on file in the City Clerk's office.
Section 117-4 of Ogdensburg's Code of Ordinances requires the city to maintain a specific set of documents in a central, publicly accessible location. These documents include the local housing plan, Executive Order 11083, Title VI and Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act, and applicable state and local fair housing laws. By keeping these materials on file in the City Clerk's office, the rule ensures that the governing fair housing framework is available for public reference.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 117-4, the recordkeeping obligation falls on the city rather than on individual property owners or managers. However, landlords operating in Ogdensburg may find it useful to know that the City Clerk's office maintains copies of the fair housing laws and executive orders that govern housing practices in the area. Reviewing those on-file documents can help operators understand the legal framework within which they are expected to conduct their rental activities.
