Islip, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 54 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 54-16
Clothes-drying area
Operative Text
The trailer park permittee shall provide a suitably enclosed drying area. No trailer shall have an individual clothes-drying area.
Under Islip, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 54 § 54-16, trailer parks are required to provide a shared, suitably enclosed area for drying clothes. Individual trailers are not permitted to maintain their own separate clothes-drying areas. This rule centralizes clothes-drying within the park rather than allowing it at each individual unit.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 54-16, operators holding a trailer park permit are generally expected to designate and maintain a suitably enclosed communal clothes-drying area accessible to residents. Compliant park operators ensure that no individual trailer is set up with its own drying area, keeping all such activity within the designated shared space. Routine inspections of the park layout can help confirm that the enclosed drying area meets the provision's requirements.

Section 54-16 of Islip's Code of Ordinances gives trailer park residents the right to access a suitably enclosed communal clothes-drying area provided by the park permittee. If no such area exists, or if a resident is penalized for using a shared drying space, that may represent a failure of the permittee's obligations under this provision. Residents who believe this rule is not being followed may consider contacting the relevant Islip municipal or code enforcement office, or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization for general guidance.
