Sands Point, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 127-4
Rental occupancy registration required
Operative Text
A. It shall be unlawful and a violation of the Village Code for any person or entity who owns a Dwelling Unit in the Village to rent that Dwelling Unit for less than one year. B. It shall be unlawful and a violation of the Village Code for any person or entity who owns a Dwelling Unit in the Village to establish, maintain, use, let, lease, rent, or suffer or permit the occupancy and use thereof as a Rental Dwelling Unit without having a valid registration for such Rental Occupancy, as herein provided.
Sands Point, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 § 127-4 establishes two distinct prohibitions for dwelling unit owners in the Village. First, renting a dwelling unit for a term of less than one year is flatly prohibited. Second, operating any dwelling unit as a rental—regardless of lease length—is unlawful unless the owner holds a valid Rental Occupancy registration as required by the chapter.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under ch. 127 § 127-4, compliant rental property operators in Sands Point ensure that every lease or rental arrangement runs for a minimum of one year and that a valid Rental Occupancy registration is obtained and kept current before any tenant takes occupancy. Operators generally maintain documentation showing the registration is in good standing for each rental dwelling unit they own. Allowing a unit to be occupied as a rental without that registration—or under a short-term arrangement—constitutes a violation of the Village Code.

Section 127-4 of the Sands Point Village Code means that any rental arrangement you enter should be backed by the landlord's valid Rental Occupancy registration, and the tenancy itself must be for at least one year. If you have reason to believe a landlord is renting without proper registration or is offering an unlawful short-term arrangement, you may contact the Village of Sands Point directly to inquire about the registration status of the unit. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Nassau County housing rules can help you understand what options may be available when a landlord appears to be operating outside ch. 127 § 127-4.
