Southport, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 352 § 352-13 establishes the conditions under which a mobile home may be placed on land outside of a designated mobile park within the Town. The rule limits each qualifying lot to one mobile home at a time, requires access to approved sanitary and water supply facilities, and restricts stays to no more than four weeks in any 12-month period unless the Town Board grants an extension. The mobile home must also be positioned at least six feet from any side lot line and at least 30 feet from the street line.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners in Southport who allow a mobile home on land outside a licensed mobile park must ensure compliance with every condition set out in § 352-13 before placement begins. Compliant operators confirm that adequate sanitary facilities and an approved water supply are conveniently accessible, limit occupancy to one mobile home per lot, and track the four-week annual duration limit — seeking a Town Board extension if a longer stay is anticipated. Operators also verify that the unit is sited no closer than six feet to any side lot line and no closer than 30 feet to the street line before the mobile home is positioned.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants living in a mobile home situated outside a mobile park in Southport should be aware that § 352-13 entitles them to premises with adequate sanitary facilities and an approved water supply, and that the placement of their home must meet specific setback distances from lot and street lines. The four-week annual duration limit is a key provision; if a longer stay is needed, an extension must come from the Town Board, and tenants may want to confirm whether such an extension has been obtained. Those who believe conditions at their site do not meet the requirements of § 352-13 can contact the Town of Southport's relevant municipal office or consult a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
