Barton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 97 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 97-22
Additions
Operative Text
Secondary additions to mobile homes must be commercially manufactured and installed as if professionally designed and built or must conform to the New York State Fire Prevention and Building Code. For all secondary additions, exterior design and construction shall be compatible with the existing home exterior sheathing and roofing treatment.
Section 97-22 of Barton's Code of Ordinances establishes construction standards for secondary additions to mobile homes. Such additions must either be commercially manufactured and installed to a professional standard, or they must comply with the New York State Fire Prevention and Building Code. In either case, the exterior appearance of any addition—including sheathing and roofing—must visually match the existing mobile home.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Barton Code § 97-22, operators and owners of mobile home properties are generally expected to ensure that any secondary addition meets one of two recognized construction pathways: commercial manufacture with professional-grade installation, or full compliance with the New York State Fire Prevention and Building Code. Compliant operators also take care that the exterior materials and roofing of any addition are compatible with those already present on the home. Keeping documentation of the addition's origin, installation method, and materials can help demonstrate conformance with this section.

Section 97-22 of Barton's Code of Ordinances gives mobile home residents a basis to understand what standards apply to secondary additions on their homes. If an addition appears to have been built without meeting either the commercial-manufacture standard or the New York State Fire Prevention and Building Code, that may represent a code compliance issue worth noting. Tenants who believe a violation exists may consider contacting the local code enforcement office, consulting a tenant-rights organization, or reviewing the full ordinance to understand available options.
