Barton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 97 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 97-44
Fees
Operative Text
A. Single mobile home lots. (1) The fee for applying for the issuance of a building permit shall be as set forth from time to time by resolution of the Town Board. (2) The fee for applying for the issuance of an installation permit shall be as set forth from time to time by resolution of the Town Board. B. Mobile home parks. (1) The fee for the preliminary application shall be as set forth from time to time by resolution of the Town Board. (2) The fee for renewal of the permit to operate a mobile home park shall be as set forth from time to time by resolution of the Town Board for each mobile home in the park at the time of application. (3) The fee for applying for the issuance of an installation permit shall be the same as for a single lot mobile home. C. Modification of fees. The Town Board may, from time to time, by simple resolution of the Board, modify the above-mentioned fees. In the event that such resolution is passed, the Town Board shall cause notice of such change or changes to be published in the newspaper designated by it at its organizational meeting and shall cause a schedule to be prepared and posted conspicuously in the Town Clerk's office.
Section 97-44 of Barton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 97 establishes that fees for building permits, installation permits, and mobile home park applications and renewals are not fixed in the ordinance itself but are instead set periodically by Town Board resolution. For mobile home parks, the renewal fee is calculated on a per-mobile-home basis at the time of application. Whenever the Town Board changes these fees, it must publish notice in a designated newspaper and post an updated fee schedule in the Town Clerk's office.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of single mobile home lots or mobile home parks in Barton should regularly check the current fee schedule posted in the Town Clerk's office, as § 97-44 allows the Town Board to adjust permit and application fees at any time by resolution. For park renewal permits, the fee is assessed per mobile home present in the park at the time of application, so the total amount owed can vary with occupancy. Staying current with published notices in the Town Board's designated newspaper helps ensure that the correct fees are submitted with each application.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Under § 97-44 of Barton's Code of Ordinances, residents of mobile home parks or single lots have a right to know what fees are being charged, as the Town is required to publish any fee changes in a local newspaper and maintain a posted schedule at the Town Clerk's office. If a tenant believes a fee being passed through or charged in connection with a permit does not match the officially posted schedule, reviewing that public posting is a starting point for understanding what amounts are authorized. Tenant-rights organizations or a housing attorney familiar with New York municipal law can help clarify how these fee structures may interact with any lease or park rental agreement.
