Section 83-8 of Sodus, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 83 establishes the process and documentation required before a manufactured home park permit can be issued in the Town of Sodus. A written application must be filed with the town's enforcement officer, who then forwards it to the Town Board; no permit may be issued until the Town Board provides written authorization. The application must include a comprehensive set of materials covering ownership details, site design, sewage and water supply plans, topography, proposed park rules, and fee structures, among other items.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators seeking to develop a manufactured home park in Sodus must comply with the multi-step application process outlined in § 83-8 before any permit is granted. A compliant applicant assembles all required documentation—including ownership information, sketch drawings conforming to Articles V and VI, engineering statements on sewage disposal if public sewer is unavailable, and a copy of all proposed park rules and fee schedules—and submits everything to the enforcement officer. Because the Town Board must issue written authorization before the enforcement officer can act, operators generally allow adequate lead time for board review when planning a project timeline.

Section 83-8 of ch. 83 requires that any manufactured home park in Sodus be established only after a thorough public application process, which includes disclosure of park rules, management and tenant responsibilities, and all entrance, exit, utility, and security deposit fees. This means prospective residents have a right to know that the park they are considering was authorized through this formal process and that its rules and fee structures were submitted as part of the permit record. Tenants who have questions about whether a park's permit was properly obtained, or whether disclosed fees match what is being charged, may contact the Town of Sodus enforcement officer or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with local ordinance ch. 83.
