Mariaville Lake is an unincorporated community (population 666) in Schenectady County, New York. Because Mariaville Lake is not an incorporated city, it does not have its own municipal code.

New York has no general HOA statute. CCR enforcement in Schenectady County HOAs is governed by the Declaration and the Business Corporation Law (if incorporated) or the Not-for-Profit Corporation Law. Disputes are resolved in civil court.
Schenectady County HOAs — typically in newer subdivisions in Niskayuna and Glenville — are private contract entities. Enforcement relies on the recorded Declaration of Covenants, Conditions & Restrictions, bylaws, and the board's authority. Unlike FL, VA, or CO, NY has no condominium/HOA-act regulator (condos fall under RPL Article 9-B; cooperatives under BCL). HOAs may file Supreme Court actions for injunctions, and courts apply 'business judgment rule' deference to reasonable enforcement decisions.
Fines per the HOA Declaration (commonly $25–$250); court remedies include injunctions and attorney fees.
