Ellenville, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 142 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 142-12
Placement on stands
Operative Text
Placement of mobile homes on mobile home stands by jacks or supports shall be such as to ensure the retention of the mobile home in a fixed position.
Section 142-12 of Ellenville's Code of Ordinances establishes that when a mobile home is placed on a mobile home stand, the jacks or supports used must hold the home securely in a fixed, stable position. The rule is focused on the physical anchoring of the structure rather than any financial or administrative requirement. It sets a performance standard: the placement method must be sufficient to prevent the home from shifting or moving.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 142-12, operators of mobile home parks in Ellenville are expected to ensure that every mobile home placed on a stand is secured with jacks or supports adequate to keep it stationary. Compliant park operators typically inspect the anchoring and leveling of each unit at the time of placement and maintain records of that process. Attention to the adequacy of supports—accounting for soil conditions, home size, and local weather—is consistent with meeting the standard this section establishes.
