Albion Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 179 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 179-13
General site conditions; minimum size of parcel
Operative Text
A. The condition of soil, groundwater level, drainage and topography shall not create hazards to the property or the health or safety of the occupants. The site shall not be exposed to objectionable smoke, noise, odors or other adverse influences, and no portion subject to unpredictable and/or sudden flooding, subsidence or erosion shall be used for any purpose which would expose persons or property to hazards. B. All mobile home parks shall be located on a parcel of land having an area of not less than 10 acres. Existing mobile home parks which occupy an area of less than 10 acres may continue.
Section 179-13 of Albion Village's Code of Ordinances establishes baseline environmental and physical standards for mobile home park sites. It requires that soil, groundwater, drainage, and topography not pose hazards, and that sites be free from harmful smoke, noise, odors, or flood and erosion risks. Additionally, new mobile home parks must be situated on parcels of at least 10 acres, though parks already operating on smaller parcels are permitted to continue.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home parks in Albion Village should be aware that § 179-13 sets mandatory site-condition standards covering soil stability, drainage, groundwater levels, and exposure to environmental nuisances. A compliant park operator generally conducts or obtains assessments of these physical conditions before developing or expanding a site, and avoids placing any structures or occupied areas in zones prone to flooding, subsidence, or erosion. For new park development, operators typically ensure the parcel meets the 10-acre minimum, while existing parks under that threshold may continue under the grandfathering provision.

Under § 179-13 of Albion Village's Code of Ordinances, residents of mobile home parks have a right to live on sites that meet minimum safety standards for soil, drainage, groundwater, and freedom from hazardous environmental conditions. If a tenant believes their park's site conditions—such as flooding, erosion, or exposure to smoke or odors—fall short of these requirements, they may consider raising the violation with Albion Village's local code enforcement office or a tenant-rights organization familiar with New York housing law. Tenants in parks smaller than 10 acres should know that such parks may lawfully continue operating under the grandfathering clause of this provision.
