Section 69-10 of Goshen, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 69 designates the Town of Goshen Building Inspector and the Orange County Department of Health as the agencies responsible for enforcing the mobile home park chapter. These officials and their inspectors are authorized to enter mobile home parks to conduct inspections verifying compliance with the chapter and its regulations. Routine inspections must occur at reasonable times with prior notice to the park operator, though emergency inspections may be conducted without advance notice when the public interest requires it.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 69-10, mobile home park owners, agents, and operators are expected to provide the Building Inspector and Orange County Department of Health inspectors with access to all parts of the premises within their control. Compliant operators generally ensure that inspection requests made at reasonable times with prior notice are accommodated promptly, and they maintain records and site conditions that facilitate straightforward compliance reviews. Because emergency inspections can occur without prior notice, operators commonly keep the property in a condition that reflects ongoing adherence to Chapter 69 requirements at all times.

Section 69-10 establishes that residents of mobile home parks in Goshen are protected by a framework requiring inspections to be conducted at reasonable times with prior notice to the park operator under normal circumstances. If a tenant believes conditions in the park violate Chapter 69, they may consider reaching out to the Town of Goshen Building Inspector or the Orange County Department of Health, both of which are designated enforcement authorities under this provision. Tenants may also consult a local tenant-rights organization to understand how inspection findings or violations could relate to their rights under the broader chapter.
