Rockville Centre, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 264 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 264-3
Duration of registration and permit; duty to keep information current; renewals
Operative Text
A. Rental registrations and permits issued pursuant to this chapter shall be valid for a period of two years from the date of issuance. In the event any information contained in the registration application changes during the term of any registration, the registration shall expire unless the owner files an amendment to the registration application within 30 days of the event which caused the change of information. A mere change in tenants, without any change in the information contained in the registration application, shall not cause the expiration of a registration and permit nor require an amendment to the registration and permit. B. An owner or representative of an owner of a rental dwelling unit may apply for renewal of a registration and permit at any time on or after 60 days prior to the expiration of the registration and permit. Such renewal application shall be made by completing the same application as required for an initial registration and shall be accompanied by a renewal fee in an amount established from time to time by resolution of the Board of Trustees. C. The Superintendent of the Building Department shall grant each registration and permit application, or renewal thereof, which complies with the provisions of this chapter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Superintendent may deny such registration and permit, or renewal thereof, where there is an existing violation of any provision of the Village Code at such property which is reasonably related to the safe use and occupancy of the property for residential purposes.
Under Rockville Centre, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 264 § 264-3, rental registrations and permits are valid for two years from issuance. If any information in the registration application changes during that period, the owner must file an amendment within 30 days or the registration expires — though a simple change in tenants alone does not trigger this requirement. Renewals can be initiated up to 60 days before expiration, and the Building Department Superintendent must approve applications that comply with the chapter, but may deny them when an existing Village Code violation poses a risk to the safe residential use of the property.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of rental dwelling units in Rockville Centre should track the two-year expiration date of each registration and permit issued under ch. 264 § 264-3 and begin the renewal process up to 60 days before that date. Whenever registration information changes — such as a new owner, contact address, or property details — a compliant operator files an amendment within 30 days of that change; a turnover of tenants alone does not require an amendment. Keeping the property free of Village Code violations that relate to safe residential use and occupancy is also relevant, since the Building Department Superintendent may deny or decline to renew a registration where such violations exist.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Under ch. 264 § 264-3, the Village of Rockville Centre requires rental properties to maintain a current, valid registration and permit, which helps ensure that rental units meet standards for safe use and occupancy. Tenants who believe a landlord is operating without a valid registration, or that a registration was improperly maintained, may raise this concern with the Rockville Centre Building Department, which oversees the registration process. Tenant-rights organizations or a housing attorney familiar with Nassau County local law can help residents understand what options may be available when a landlord's registration status is in question.
