Westbury, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 83 § 83-3 defines the physical scope of the Village's property maintenance chapter, extending its requirements to a broad range of properties within Westbury. Covered properties include residential buildings, mixed-use and commercial structures, industrial and storage facilities, and vacant buildings, as well as the land parcels on which they sit. Accessory structures—such as garages or sheds—attached to any of these property types also fall within the chapter's reach, regardless of whether the main building is occupied or vacant.

Under Westbury, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 83 § 83-3, property owners and managers operating in the Village of Westbury should be aware that the chapter's obligations extend well beyond occupied residential units. Compliant operators generally account for all structures on a parcel—including accessory buildings like detached garages or storage sheds—when assessing maintenance responsibilities. Owners of vacant properties are not exempt, as the provision explicitly includes unoccupied residential, commercial, industrial, and storage buildings within the chapter's scope.

Westbury, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 83 § 83-3 establishes that the Village's property maintenance standards apply to the residential building where a tenant lives, as well as to any accessory structures on the same parcel. This means tenants may have grounds to raise concerns about conditions in common areas, outbuildings, or the surrounding lot—not just the interior of their unit. Tenants who believe a covered property is not being maintained in accordance with ch. 83 may consider contacting the Village of Westbury's code enforcement office or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
