Fallsburg, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 218 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 218-10
Skirting and slab for mobile homes
Operative Text
All mobile homes shall be on a monolithic slab, full foundation or crawl space. All newly installed mobile homes shall be fully skirted as per § 310-5.12 of the Town Zoning Code. Mobile homes in existence prior to the enactment of this section shall maintain existing skirting in good condition, and the unit shall be fully skirted on four sides, and all water and sanitary sewer lines shall be protected from freezing.
Section 218-10 of Fallsburg's Code of Ordinances establishes foundation and skirting standards for mobile homes. Every mobile home must rest on a monolithic slab, full foundation, or crawl space, and must be fully skirted on all four sides. Newly installed units must meet the skirting specifications in § 310-5.12 of the Town Zoning Code, while pre-existing units must keep their current skirting in good repair and ensure that water and sanitary sewer lines are protected from freezing.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and owners of mobile home properties in Fallsburg should ensure that every unit placed on a lot complies with the foundation requirements of § 218-10 — a monolithic slab, full foundation, or crawl space. For newly installed homes, full skirting conforming to § 310-5.12 of the Town Zoning Code is required before the unit is considered compliant. For homes that existed before this section was enacted, maintaining existing skirting in good condition, completing full four-sided skirting, and winterizing all water and sanitary sewer lines to prevent freezing are the hallmarks of ongoing compliance.

Residents of mobile homes in Fallsburg have an interest in knowing that § 218-10 entitles them to live in a unit that meets specific structural and weatherization standards, including proper foundation support, complete four-sided skirting, and freeze-protected water and sewer lines. If a unit appears to lack adequate skirting or has exposed utility lines vulnerable to freezing, tenants may document the conditions and raise the potential violation with Fallsburg's local code enforcement office. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York housing code can help residents understand what options may be available when a unit does not appear to meet the requirements of § 218-10.
