Town of Brookhaven

[Chris Berry]

Has anyone else in Suffolk County had a much different experience with the Town of Brookhaven rental permit inspection than in the past?  This year they doubled the price to renew from around $250-500.  Normally I would have small items they ask me to fix never more than 1k over the last ten years I've been renting out properties on Long Island.  This year I was very surprised to see what they told me to fix.  It was 12k worth of repairs to the property.  The town told me the increase in price for renewal was because we get so much more for rent.  I've left 4 messages with the person in charge of the building department with no return phone call.  I wanted to see if there was a change to building code and what the inspector was now looking for.  Wanted to see if anyone else has run into the same issues.
