Bath, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 72 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 72-38
Operating license; transferability
Operative Text
A. It shall be unlawful for any person to operate and maintain any manufactured home park within the Village of Bath unless said person holds a valid license issued annually by the Village of Bath in compliance with the provisions of this chapter in the name of such person for the specific manufactured home park. B. Licenses issued as provided herein shall be transferable only upon written application to and approval by the Village Board.
Bath, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 72 § 72-38 establishes that operating a manufactured home park within the Village of Bath without a valid, annually issued license is unlawful. The license is issued in the name of a specific person for a specific park, meaning it is not automatically transferable. If ownership or operation of a park changes hands, the license may only be transferred after a written application is submitted to and approved by the Village Board.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Bath, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 72 § 72-38, compliant manufactured home park operators maintain a current, annually renewed license issued by the Village of Bath in their name for each specific park they operate. Operators who are selling or otherwise transferring a park generally initiate the written transfer-approval process with the Village Board before the change in operation takes effect. Allowing a license to lapse or operating under an unapproved transfer arrangement exposes an operator to liability for unlawful operation under this section.

Bath, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 72 § 72-38 requires that the park where you live be operated under a valid, annually issued Village license. If a park changes ownership or management, that license must be formally transferred through Village Board approval — meaning residents may have an interest in whether the new operator is properly licensed. Tenants who have questions about their park's licensing status can contact the Village of Bath directly or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization for general guidance on available options.
