Verona, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 171 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 171-5
Issuance of license
Operative Text
A. The Town Superintendent of Highways and the Town Health Officer shall examine and investigate the statements contained in such applications, together with the plans and specifications and shall report to the Town Board the results of their investigation. A copy of such report shall also be submitted to the Town Planning Board, who shall study such application and report of investigation, and report to the Town Board whether they recommend the granting of such license. Within 60 days after the filing of such application with the Town Clerk, the Town Board shall act by resolution. However, no license shall be granted until the Town Board shall have held a public hearing on 10 days' notice published once in the official newspaper of the Town stating the date, time, place and subject matter of the hearing. B. No license shall be issued contrary to the applicable provisions of supplemental regulations, Chapter 262 , Zoning, § 262-24 . No manufactured home in a manufactured home park or recreational vehicle park not previously licensed shall be located within 100 feet of the nearest boundary line of any state highway, nor within 50 feet of the nearest boundary line of any Town or county highway, nor within 500 feet of the nearest boundary of the Erie Canal Park. Single manufactured homes may be located in any zoning district upon the issuance of a special permit by the Zoning Board of Appeals as authorized in this chapter.
Section 171-5 of Verona, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 171 establishes the process by which a manufactured home park or recreational vehicle park license is reviewed and issued. The Town Superintendent of Highways and Town Health Officer investigate applications and report findings to the Town Board, which must act by resolution within 60 days of filing. No license may be granted without a public hearing on at least 10 days' published notice, and no license may be issued that conflicts with zoning rules under Chapter 262, § 262-24, including mandatory setback distances from state, town, and county highways and the Erie Canal Park.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators seeking a manufactured home park or recreational vehicle park license under § 171-5 generally ensure their applications include complete plans and specifications, since the Town Superintendent of Highways and Town Health Officer will scrutinize those materials before reporting to the Town Board. Compliant operators account for the mandatory setback requirements — 100 feet from state highway boundaries, 50 feet from Town or county highway boundaries, and 500 feet from the Erie Canal Park boundary — when siting units in any new or previously unlicensed park. Operators also plan for the mandatory public hearing process, which requires at least 10 days' published notice in the Town's official newspaper before the Town Board can act by resolution.

Residents of or prospective tenants in a manufactured home park or recreational vehicle park in Verona should be aware that § 171-5 requires any such park to have gone through a formal public licensing process, including a public hearing and review by multiple Town bodies. If a park appears to be operating without a properly issued license, or if its layout may not comply with the setback requirements from highways or the Erie Canal Park, tenants may raise those concerns with the Verona Town Board or Town Clerk. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York manufactured housing law can help residents understand what remedies or complaint pathways may be available under ch. 171.
