Chittenango, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 137 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 137-14
Exceptions
Operative Text
A. All of the foregoing shall not affect the rights and privileges of those persons who have had legally permitted manufactured homes in the Village of Chittenango, and those persons shall retain said manufactured homes at the place and property where located as of June 15, 1956; provided, however, that all proper license fees are duly paid when due and payable. Nothing noted in this subsection shall be deemed to alter, amend or in any manner affect the licensing, inspection and regulating of said manufactured homes legally permitted as of June 15, 1956, said manufactured homes being considered and hereby brought under the scope, supervision and regulation of this chapter. B. None of the provisions of this chapter shall be applicable to the sale, storage or garaging within a building or structure of a manufactured home, nor shall the same be applicable to the exhibit for sale of manufactured homes upon any property in the Village of Chittenango outside a manufactured home park.
Section 137-14 of Chittenango's Code of Ordinances ch. 137 establishes two categories of exceptions to the village's manufactured home regulations. First, individuals who had legally permitted manufactured homes in place as of June 15, 1956 may keep those homes at their existing locations, so long as required license fees are kept current — though those homes remain subject to licensing, inspection, and regulation under the chapter. Second, the chapter's rules do not apply to the sale, storage, or garaging of a manufactured home inside a building or structure, nor to the display of manufactured homes for sale on property outside a manufactured home park within the village.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and property owners dealing with manufactured homes in Chittenango should be aware that § 137-14 carves out specific situations from the chapter's general requirements. If a manufactured home was legally permitted on a property as of June 15, 1956, a compliant operator ensures that all applicable license fees are paid on time, since that is the condition on which the grandfathered status depends. Operators involved in the sale, storage, or indoor garaging of manufactured homes, or in displaying units for sale outside a manufactured home park, generally confirm that those activities fall within the exemptions described in § 137-14(B) before assuming the chapter's broader rules do not apply.

Tenants residing in manufactured homes in Chittenango may find § 137-14 relevant if their home predates the June 15, 1956 cutoff, as that provision preserves certain rights tied to that grandfathered status. Even under the exception, those homes remain subject to the chapter's licensing and inspection requirements, which can be a basis for raising concerns about habitability or regulatory compliance. Tenants who believe their home's status under § 137-14 is being misapplied or that required inspections are not being conducted may wish to contact the village directly or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with New York manufactured housing law.
