Hamlin, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 454 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 454-24
Temporary permits
Operative Text
A. Temporary trailer permits may be issued for use by construction contractors and engineers for office use. B. Applications for temporary trailer permits shall be made to the Building Inspector. Such applications shall be accompanied by a site map showing the location of the proposed trailer. The applicant should also pay the fee for a temporary trailer permit as established by the Town Board of the Town of Hamlin. The location of the trailer shall be subject to approval by the Building Inspector. C. The trailer may not be placed upon the premises prior to 10 days before the commencement of construction and must be removed within 30 days following completion of construction. The Building Inspector may revoke any temporary permit in the event that construction has not commenced within 10 days of issuance and may take legal action for the removal of any trailer remaining on the premises in violation of this section.
Section 454-24 of Hamlin, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 454 establishes a temporary permit system for trailers used by construction contractors and engineers as on-site offices. A trailer may only be placed on a property within a specific window tied to the construction timeline — no earlier than 10 days before work begins and must be removed within 30 days after construction is complete. The Building Inspector holds authority to approve trailer placement, revoke permits if construction does not start promptly, and pursue legal action to remove trailers that remain in violation of these rules.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and developers overseeing construction projects in Hamlin should be aware that § 454-24 requires a formal application to the Building Inspector before placing any contractor or engineer trailer on a site, including submission of a site map and payment of the fee set by the Town Board. Compliant operators ensure the trailer is not brought onto the property more than 10 days before construction commences and arrange for its removal no later than 30 days after construction is finished. Operators also take care that construction begins within 10 days of permit issuance, since the Building Inspector is authorized under § 454-24 to revoke the temporary permit if that threshold is not met.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
While § 454-24 primarily governs construction-related trailer permits rather than residential tenancy, tenants who observe a contractor or engineer trailer on a property they occupy or neighbor may note that the trailer's presence is regulated by the Building Inspector under this provision. The rule sets strict placement and removal deadlines tied to construction activity, and the Building Inspector has authority to act against trailers that fall outside those limits. Anyone with concerns about a trailer that appears to violate the timing or placement requirements of § 454-24 may contact the Hamlin Building Inspector's office or consult a tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
