Albion Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 179 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 179-25
Sewage disposal
Operative Text
A. General. An adequate and safe sewerage system shall be provided in all mobile home parks for conveying and disposing of all sewage. Such system shall be designed, constructed and maintained in accordance with state and local laws. B. Sewer lines. All sewer lines shall be located in trenches of sufficient depth to be free of breakage from traffic or other movements and shall be separated from the park water supply system at a distance as specified by generally accepted standards. Sewers shall be at a grade which will ensure a velocity of two feet per second when flowing full. All sewer lines shall be constructed of materials approved by the New York State Health Department, Village of Albion Streets Department and Bureau of Code Enforcement and Fire Prevention, shall be adequately vented and shall have watertight joints. C. Sewer connections. (1) Each mobile home stand shall be provided with at least a four-inch diameter sewer riser pipe. The sewer riser pipe shall be so located on each stand that the sewer connection to the mobile home drain outlet will approximate a vertical position. (2) The sewer connection (see the definition of "sewer connection" in § 179-4B) shall have a normal inside diameter of at least three inches, and the slope of any portion thereof shall be at least one-fourth (1/4) inch per foot. All joints shall be watertight. (3) All materials used for sewer connections shall be rigid, corrosive-resistant, nonabsorbent and durable. The inner surface shall be smooth. (4) Provision shall be made for plugging the sewer riser pipe when a mobile home does not occupy the lot. Surface drainage shall be diverted away from the riser. The rim of the riser pipe shall extend at least four inches above ground elevation. (5) Sewer lines shall be suspended using perforated metal strap attached to the mobile home.
Section 179-25 of Albion Village's Code of Ordinances (Chapter 179) establishes technical standards for sewage disposal systems in mobile home parks. The rule requires that all sewage infrastructure—from main sewer lines to individual home connections—be designed, built, and maintained to meet state and local standards, including specific requirements for pipe diameter, slope, materials, and joint integrity. Sewer lines must be buried deep enough to avoid damage from traffic, graded to maintain adequate flow velocity, and constructed from materials approved by the New York State Health Department, the Village of Albion Streets Department, and the Bureau of Code Enforcement and Fire Prevention.

Operators of mobile home parks in Albion Village are generally expected to ensure that every aspect of their sewage system complies with § 179-25, from the main sewer lines down to each individual stand's riser pipe. Compliant park operators typically use approved rigid, corrosion-resistant materials, maintain watertight joints, ensure proper pipe grading and venting, and plug riser pipes on unoccupied lots while keeping rims at least four inches above ground. Routine inspection and maintenance of sewer line depth, slope, and suspension hardware—including perforated metal strap attachments—are consistent with the ongoing maintenance obligations this section establishes.

Residents of mobile home parks in Albion Village have an interest in knowing that § 179-25 requires park operators to provide and maintain a safe, adequate sewage system meeting specific construction and material standards.
