Valatie, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 219 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 219-14
Stand requirements
Operative Text
A. Each mobile home lot shall have a mobile home stand which will provide for the practical placement on and removal from the lot of both the mobile home and its appurtenant structures and the retention of the home on the lot in a stable condition. B. The stand shall be of sufficient size to fit the dimensions of the anticipated mobile homes and their appurtenant structures or appendages. C. The stand shall be constructed of an appropriate nonporous material which is durable and adequate for the support of the maximum anticipated loads. D. The stand shall be suitably graded to permit rapid surface drainage.
Section 219-14 of Valatie's Code of Ordinances establishes physical standards for the pads or stands on which mobile homes are placed within a mobile home park. Each stand must be large enough to accommodate the home and any attached structures, built from a durable nonporous material capable of bearing maximum expected loads, and graded to allow surface water to drain away quickly. The rule also requires that the stand be designed so that mobile homes can be moved onto or off the lot without difficulty and remain stable once in place.

Operators of mobile home parks in Valatie must ensure that every lot contains a stand meeting the specifications of ch. 219 § 219-14 before a mobile home is placed on it. Compliant park operators typically verify that stand dimensions match or exceed the footprint of the homes and appurtenant structures they expect to host, use nonporous, load-bearing materials in construction, and confirm proper grading so that drainage is not impeded. Keeping documentation of stand materials, dimensions, and grading inspections is a practice commonly associated with ongoing compliance.

Under ch. 219 § 219-14 of Valatie's Code of Ordinances, residents of mobile home parks have an interest in knowing that the stand beneath their home meets the village's structural and drainage standards. If a stand appears inadequate in size, material, or drainage, tenants may raise the issue with Valatie's local code enforcement office, which is generally responsible for inspecting compliance with these requirements. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York mobile home park law can help residents understand what options may be available when a stand does not appear to meet the standards set out in this provision.
