Showing ordinances that apply to Clintondale, NY
Clintondale is an unincorporated community (population 1,938) in Ulster County, New York. Because Clintondale is not an incorporated city, it does not have its own municipal code. Instead, Ulster County ordinances apply directly to properties here. The breed restrictions rules below are the ones that govern your area.
Ulster County and its municipalities do not have breed-specific legislation. New York State Agriculture and Markets Law Section 107 preempts local breed bans, focusing instead on dangerous dog determinations based on behavior.
Under NY Ag and Markets Law Section 107(5), no municipality may enact local law that discriminates against a particular breed. All dangerous dog cases proceed under Section 121 regardless of breed. Homeowners insurance companies in Ulster County may still decline coverage for certain breeds, but this is a private matter not enforceable by municipal authority. Rental housing may impose breed restrictions as landlord policy.
Contact your local code enforcement office for specific penalty information.
