Fees
Operative Text
The fee for the issuance of an apartment certificate of occupancy for a vacant apartment and for an apartment occupied before inspection shall be an amount as established by resolution of the Board of Trustees, payable to the Village of Valatie.
Section 261-10 of Valatie's Code of Ordinances establishes that obtaining an apartment certificate of occupancy—whether for a vacant unit or one already occupied at the time of inspection—requires payment of a fee. The specific dollar amount is not fixed in the ordinance itself but is instead set periodically by the Village of Valatie's Board of Trustees through a formal resolution. The fee is paid directly to the Village of Valatie.
