Hoosick, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 266 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 266-18
Exceptions
Operative Text
None of the provisions of this chapter shall be applicable to: A. A mobile home or travel trailer located on the site of a construction project, survey project or other similar project and which is used solely as a field office or work or toolhouse in connection with such project, provided that such mobile home or travel trailer is removed from such site within 30 days after the completion of such project. B. A modular, double-wide or sectional house which is prefabricated in sections, transported to the building site fastened together and placed on a permanent and totally enclosed masonry foundation.
Section 266-18 of Hoosick, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 266 carves out two categories of structures from the chapter's requirements entirely. First, mobile homes or travel trailers used strictly as temporary field offices or work/toolhouses on active construction or survey sites are exempt, so long as they are removed within 30 days of project completion. Second, modular, double-wide, or sectional homes that are prefabricated, transported to a site, joined together, and placed on a permanent, fully enclosed masonry foundation are also excluded from the chapter's rules.

Property owners and managers operating under Chapter 266 should be aware that Section 266-18 identifies two structural types that fall entirely outside the chapter's regulatory scope. Operators who place temporary mobile homes or trailers on active project sites as field offices or toolhouses, and who remove them within 30 days of project completion, generally maintain compliance with the exemption's conditions. Similarly, operators who install prefabricated modular or double-wide homes on permanent, fully enclosed masonry foundations typically fall outside the chapter's requirements for that structure type.

Section 266-18 of Hoosick's Chapter 266 defines which dwelling types are not covered by the chapter's protections, which is relevant context for tenants trying to understand whether their housing situation falls within the chapter's scope. Tenants living in a modular or double-wide home on a permanent masonry foundation, or in a temporary trailer used as a field office, should be aware that the chapter's provisions may not apply to their unit. Tenants with questions about whether their specific housing type qualifies for coverage under Chapter 266 may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or local housing authority for general guidance.
