Rockville Centre, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 225 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 225-3
Registers
Operative Text
Any person maintaining such a lodging house, rooming house or boardinghouse pursuant to the provisions of this chapter shall keep upon such premises a register showing the names and occupations of all persons residing or living in or upon said premises and shall exhibit the same to any member of the Police Department or the Chief Engineer of the Village or his deputy, or the Chief Executive of the Fire Department or his deputized agent, at any reasonable time upon demand, and upon the failure to so exhibit the same, such license shall be revoked.
Under Rockville Centre, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 225 § 225-3, operators of lodging houses, rooming houses, and boardinghouses are required to maintain an on-site register listing the names and occupations of all residents. This register must be made available for inspection by designated village officials—including police officers, the Chief Engineer or deputy, and the Fire Department Chief or deputized agent—whenever reasonably requested. Failure to produce the register upon demand can result in revocation of the facility's operating license.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of lodging houses, rooming houses, or boardinghouses in Rockville Centre generally keep an up-to-date, on-site register as required by ch. 225 § 225-3, recording the name and occupation of every current resident. Compliant operators make this register readily accessible on the premises so it can be produced promptly when a police officer, the Chief Engineer or deputy, or a Fire Department official makes a demand during reasonable hours. Because non-compliance can trigger license revocation under § 225-3, maintaining accurate and current records is a core operational practice for these facilities.

Section 225-3 of Rockville Centre's Code of Ordinances establishes that the facility where you live is required to keep a register of residents, which means your name and occupation should be recorded on-site. This register is subject to inspection by village officials, and if an operator fails to maintain or produce it, their license can be revoked—a protection that underscores the village's oversight of these living arrangements. Tenants who have concerns about whether their facility is complying with ch. 225 § 225-3 may consider contacting the Rockville Centre village offices or a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
