Town of Babylon rental board approves multiple permits, extends several to Dec. 4 for corrections
Summary
The Town of Babylon Rental Board approved several new rental permits and renewals and granted extensions to Dec. 4 for properties that must correct code or safety issues. One contentious hearing at 150 Archer Avenue drew neighbor complaints and divided votes.
The Town of Babylon Rental Board on [date not specified] approved a series of new rental permits and renewals and set December 4 as the deadline for multiple applicants to remedy property deficiencies.
Vice Chair Carla Bryant opened the meeting and read procedures before the board took up individual cases. The board approved permits for 307–309 Cabada Avenue and 10 McKinley Avenue after applicants confirmed inspections and agreement to submitted conditions. "You have been approved," the vice chair told applicants after votes to grant permits.
Renewals and new permits generally passed after brief staff reports or applicant statements, but the board required corrections or documentation for several properties. For 40 Scudder Avenue, the owner was given time to remove debris, power‑wash the home, and replace a side walkway; the board offered an expedited inspection if photos were submitted showing completion. Similar corrective lists and December 4 deadlines were set for 410 Dixon Avenue, 150 Archer Avenue, 25 Parkway Boulevard (Wyandanch) and others.
Board members repeatedly emphasized that maintaining a permit requires compliance with town code and that unresolved violations or repeated blue notices could jeopardize a permit. In the case of several renewals board members said they would provide photographs and a written list of required corrections.
Votes at a glance: 307–309 Cabada Ave — approved (motion moved and seconded; unanimous as recorded). 10 McKinley Ave — approved. 40 Scudder Ave — extension to Dec. 4 to complete listed corrections. 410 Dixon Ave — conditions listed; extension to Dec. 4. 150 Archer Ave — extension to Dec. 4 (see separate coverage); vote to extend carried 4–2. 25 Parkway Blvd (Wyandanch) — renewal approved with conditions and extension to Dec. 4 to complete curb‑appeal work.
The board adjourned individual cases when applicants were not present, including 1 Midwood Road, and scheduled follow‑up inspections for properties after owners submit evidence of corrections.
Officials said the board will rely on submitted documentation and follow‑up inspections to verify compliance before issuing or continuing rental permits.
