As reported in Newsday, a federal court dismissed an action against the Town of Huntington filed by a coalition of landlords. The plaintiff's objected to a rental permit law adopted by the town requiring non-owner-occupied landlords to obtain a permit for the rental property every two years. The permit certifies that the home has been examined by an independent state-certified inspector, a Town of Huntington public-safety inspector or a licensed engineer. According to the town's website:
"Rental permits are not required when:
- The owner lives on the premises
- The owner's immediate family lives on the premises
- There is a homeowner's association on site
- There is a property management office on site"
