Barton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 97 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 97-31
Expiration of preliminary permit; renewal
Operative Text
Said mobile home park permit shall expire on the first of the year following the date of issuance, but may be renewed for an additional period of one year if it can be shown that there has been substantial progress in the construction, alteration and/or extension of said mobile home park.
Under Barton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 97 § 97-31, a preliminary mobile home park permit is valid only until the first of the year following its issuance date. After that point, the permit expires automatically unless the holder demonstrates that substantial progress has been made on the construction, alteration, or extension of the mobile home park, in which case a one-year renewal may be granted. The provision sets a defined timeline for permit validity and ties any extension to documented progress on the project.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators developing a mobile home park in Barton should be aware that under ch. 97 § 97-31, the preliminary permit has a built-in expiration tied to the calendar year following issuance. Compliant operators generally track construction milestones carefully so they can document substantial progress if a renewal application becomes necessary before the permit lapses. Maintaining clear records of construction activity, contractor agreements, and site work completed is the kind of practice that supports a renewal showing under this provision.

Residents of or prospective tenants in a Barton mobile home park may find ch. 97 § 97-31 relevant when evaluating the legal standing of a park's development permits. If a park's preliminary permit has expired without renewal, that status could bear on the park's compliance with local ordinances, and tenants may wish to inquire with the Town of Barton about the current permit status. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York mobile home park law can help residents understand what permit lapses may mean for their housing situation.
