Alden, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 235 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 235-10
Licenses nontransferable
Operative Text
Licenses shall be issued to a specific person or corporate entity and shall be nontransferable. Every person holding a license shall give notice in writing to the Code Enforcement Officer within 24 hours after having sold, transferred, given away or otherwise disposed of interest in or control of any manufactured home park.
Under Alden, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 235 § 235-10, a manufactured home park license is tied to the specific individual or corporate entity to whom it was issued and cannot be passed along to another party. When ownership or control of a park changes hands—whether through a sale, transfer, gift, or any other disposition—written notice must reach the Code Enforcement Officer within 24 hours of that change. The rule ensures that licensing accountability stays with the licensed party rather than automatically carrying over to a new owner or operator.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of manufactured home parks in Alden should be aware that under § 235-10, a license cannot simply be handed off to a buyer or successor when a park changes hands. A compliant operator provides written notice to the Code Enforcement Officer within 24 hours of any sale, transfer, gift, or other disposition of interest in or control of the park. Prospective new owners or operators generally pursue their own license rather than assuming the prior holder's.
