Complaints

 Complaints & Violations

The Village of Endicott Code Enforcement Office handles complaints and violations that deal with New York State Fire Prevention and Building Code, NYS Property Maintenance Code, NYS Residential Code, NYS Mechanical and Plumbing Code and Village of Endicott Code and Zoning laws.

How Complaints Are Handled

All complaints received are assigned to an inspector that will make a visit to the site to verify the complaint. Should a violation be found the inspector will create a violation letter and mail it to the owner of the property.

Depending on the complaint type you may be referred to another agency if the complaint is outside the Village of Endicott or if it is not within the scope of code and/or laws enforced by the Codes Office.

Code Violations

What do I do if I receive a Notice To Correct And Comply?

Depending on the severity of the violation, the reasonable party normally has 14 days to correct the problem for which they are cited, some more serious violations have a 24 hour compliance time and the most serious may require immediate correction. If after the allotted time period, no effort has been made to correct the problem or an acceptable, an Appearance ticket may be issued to you, with a date to appear in Village of Endicott Court. If you are unsure of the problem or do not understand the violation, contact the Code Enforcement Office at (607) 757-2465 to inquire about the violation.
