Responsibility of occupants
Operative Text
A. Occupants of mobile homes shall comply with the requirements of this chapter and shall maintain the mobile home lot, facilities and equipment in good repair and in a clean and sanitary condition. B. Sufficient garbage containers with tight-fitting covers shall be utilized for the storage and disposal of garbage and rubbish. Containers shall be screened from public view.
Spencer, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 98 § 98-30 places responsibility on mobile home occupants—not just park owners—to keep their lots, facilities, and equipment in good repair and in a clean, sanitary state. The provision also requires that adequate covered garbage containers be used for waste storage and disposal, and that those containers be kept out of public view. In short, the rule establishes a baseline standard of upkeep and waste management that applies directly to the people living in mobile homes.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under ch. 98 § 98-30, the day-to-day maintenance obligations for individual lots fall on occupants, but park operators generally document these requirements clearly in lease agreements and community rules so residents understand what is expected. Operators commonly conduct periodic inspections to confirm that lots are clean, equipment is in good repair, and garbage containers are covered and screened from public view. Keeping written records of inspections and any notices issued to occupants helps demonstrate that the park is being managed in compliance with the chapter.
