Barton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 97 § 97-33 establishes minimum land area and setback standards for mobile home parks in Barton. A park cannot be created on less than two acres for the first unit, with an additional half-acre required for each subsequent lot, up to a maximum of four lots totaling three and a half acres. Each individual mobile home must also observe specific yard setbacks—20 feet from the front lot line, 25 feet from side and rear lot lines, at least 50 feet from a road right-of-way (or 75 feet from the centerline of any state or public road), and at least 25 feet from the park's own property lines.

Operators and developers subject to Barton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 97 § 97-33 generally ensure that any proposed mobile home park site meets the two-acre minimum for the first lot and accounts for the additional half-acre per subsequent lot before submitting engineering plans. Compliant operators site each mobile home so that it clears all required setbacks—front, side, rear, road right-of-way, and park boundary—as measured from the lot lines established on the approved engineering plans. Keeping detailed site plans that document each setback measurement is a common practice for demonstrating conformance with these dimensional standards.

Residents of mobile home parks in Barton may find that § 97-33 of ch. 97 of the Barton Code of Ordinances is relevant when questions arise about how closely a mobile home has been placed to a road, a neighboring lot line, or the park's outer boundary. If a mobile home appears to have been sited in violation of these minimum setback or acreage requirements, tenants can raise the issue with the local code enforcement or zoning office, or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with New York mobile home park law. Understanding the lot-line boundaries as shown on the park's engineering plans—referenced in § 97-33(B)(6)—can help clarify whether a placement concern falls within the scope of this provision.
