Under Bath, N.Y., Code of Ordinances § 72-9, operators of manufactured home parks or lots generally ensure that each newly placed unit is fitted with compliant skirting — uniform, durable, and ventilated — before the 60-day deadline expires. Documenting the placement date and any weather-related delays that affected installation timing is a practice commonly associated with demonstrating compliance. Selecting materials that meet the 'uniform durable' standard described in § 72-9 and confirming adequate ventilation before the deadline are typical steps in a compliant installation process.

Section 72-9 of Bath, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 72 gives residents of manufactured homes the assurance that their unit must be properly skirted within 60 days of placement, weather permitting. If skirting has not been installed within that timeframe without a weather-related justification, this provision may be relevant to a complaint filed with the appropriate local code enforcement authority in Bath, N.Y.
