Operators of manufactured housing parks in Groton must ensure that off-street parking is provided in compliance with the ratio outlined in § 200-54 of Chapter 200, Zoning, and that all parking surfaces are paved to village street specifications. Under § 127-28, any group or common parking lots must be sited no more than 200 feet from the manufactured homes they are intended to serve, ensuring convenient access for residents and guests. Compliant park operators also enforce a prohibition on lawn parking, which means park rules and physical layout should discourage or prevent vehicles from being parked on grass areas.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Residents of manufactured housing parks in Groton are entitled to off-street parking that meets the standards set out in § 127-28, including paved surfaces and, where shared lots are used, a location within 200 feet of their home. If a park's parking facilities appear to fall short of these requirements—such as unpaved lots, lawn parking being permitted, or inconveniently distant shared lots—tenants may consider raising the issue with local code enforcement or village officials. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York manufactured housing law can help residents understand what options may be available under § 127-28 and related provisions.
