Under Islip, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 54 § 54-7, every house trailer park must operate a custodian's office that assigns incoming trailers to specific plot locations and provides each occupant with the park rules and the ordinance text. When a new occupant arrives, the park must record their names, addresses, vehicle license numbers, issuing states, and the prior parking location of the trailer. These registration records must be kept open for public inspection at all times, retained for at least 60 months, and the park permit along with an approved plot plan must be visibly posted in the custodian's office.

Operators of house trailer parks in Islip should maintain a functioning custodian's office as required by ch. 54 § 54-7, ensuring it is staffed and equipped to register each incoming trailer and occupant before or upon arrival. Compliant operators assign plot locations, distribute copies of park rules and the ordinance, and document all required registration details—including prior parking location and license information—at the time of entry. Records are kept neatly, stored securely for no less than 60 months from the date of registration, and the park permit and approved plot plan are posted conspicuously in the office at all times.

Under Islip, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 54 § 54-7, occupants of house trailer parks are entitled to receive a copy of the park rules and the governing ordinance when they enter the park, and their registration information must be properly recorded and maintained. The registration log is required to be available for inspection by any person at all times, meaning residents can review it at the custodian's office. Tenants who believe a park is not meeting these requirements—such as failing to provide required documents or maintain accessible records—may consider contacting the Town of Islip's relevant code enforcement office or a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
