Clarkson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 94 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 94-46
Zoning permit required for certain actions
Operative Text
A. Prior to the placement, removal, relocation or substitution of a mobile home, the park owner/manager shall apply for and receive approval from the Zoning Officer for a zoning permit stating the proposed action. For placement, relocation or substitution, the zoning permit shall also include the following conditions: (1) The mobile home to be installed must have been constructed after June 15, 1976. (2) The mobile home to be installed must conform to the placement on the park unit pursuant to the proper setback requirements. (3) The mobile home to be installed shall be located on an approved park unit as noted within the site plan submitted in the license application. (4) The mobile home to be installed will meet all health and safety regulations regarding the attachment to the various utilities (electric, gas, water, sewer, etc.) B. For all newly placed, relocated or substituted mobile homes, a certificate of occupancy is required.
Section 94-46 of Clarkson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 94 requires that before any mobile home is placed, removed, relocated, or substituted within a mobile home park, the park owner or manager must first obtain a zoning permit from the Zoning Officer describing the intended action. For placements, relocations, or substitutions, the permit carries additional conditions: the home must have been built after June 15, 1976, must comply with setback requirements, must be sited on an approved park unit identified in the licensed site plan, and must meet health and safety standards for utility connections. Additionally, any newly placed, relocated, or substituted mobile home requires a certificate of occupancy before it may be occupied.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 94-46, compliant park owners and managers submit a zoning permit application to the Clarkson Zoning Officer before initiating any placement, removal, relocation, or substitution of a mobile home—not after the fact. For placements, relocations, and substitutions, operators generally verify that the incoming home was manufactured after June 15, 1976, confirm it fits within the approved site plan and proper setbacks, and ensure all utility connections satisfy applicable health and safety regulations. After the work is complete, operators also secure a certificate of occupancy for each newly placed, relocated, or substituted unit before allowing occupancy.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 94-46 establishes that your park owner or manager is responsible for obtaining both a zoning permit and, where applicable, a certificate of occupancy before a mobile home is placed, relocated, or substituted on your lot. If a home was installed without these approvals, or if it does not meet the post-June 15, 1976 construction requirement, setback rules, approved site-plan placement, or utility safety standards, those facts may be relevant to any dispute about the unit's legal status. Tenants who believe these requirements were not followed can contact the Clarkson Zoning Officer, review public permit records, or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
