Adoption of rules and regulations
Operative Text
A. Affordable housing rules and regulations will be adopted to establish procedures and guidelines to administer the housing units, including the initial marketing of affordable units or low-income units; the sale of for-purchase or lease of the rental units; the resale of for-purchase and releasing of rental units; monitoring compliance of income eligibility during the entire term of affordability; and adherence to deed restrictions and the Affordable Housing Rules and Regulations. B. Affordable housing rules and regulations administering the affordable housing program will be consistent with this legislation and the Affordable Housing Policy as established by the Village Board in April 14, 2006, and as promulgated, adopted and as amended from time to time.
Ossining, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 62 § 62-6 establishes that the Village must adopt a formal set of affordable housing rules and regulations to govern how affordable and low-income units are administered throughout their entire affordability period. These rules cover the full lifecycle of a unit—from initial marketing and sale or lease, through resale or re-leasing, to ongoing income-eligibility monitoring and deed-restriction compliance. Any rules adopted must remain consistent with the broader legislation and the Affordable Housing Policy approved by the Village Board on April 14, 2006, as that policy may be updated over time.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of affordable or low-income units in Ossining should be aware that ch. 62 § 62-6 requires compliance not only with the ordinance itself but also with the separately adopted Affordable Housing Rules and Regulations and the Village Board's Affordable Housing Policy. Compliant operators generally maintain documentation demonstrating adherence to income-eligibility requirements throughout the full term of affordability and follow the prescribed procedures for initial marketing, leasing, re-leasing, and any resale of for-purchase units. Staying current with any amendments to the rules and regulations—as they may be updated from time to time—is a standard part of managing units subject to this program.

Under Ossining, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 62 § 62-6, tenants in affordable or low-income units have the benefit of a structured program that governs how those units are marketed, leased, and monitored for income eligibility over the entire affordability period. This means the Village is obligated to maintain rules ensuring consistent administration of the program, including adherence to deed restrictions that protect the unit's affordable status. Tenants who believe the program's rules are not being followed may consider contacting the Village of Ossining directly, reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization, or consulting with a housing attorney to understand available options.
