Clarkson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 94 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 94-30
Surface drainage
Operative Text
A. Property used as a mobile home park shall be adequately drained, of ample size and free from heavy or dense growth of brush or weeds. The surface shall be properly graded so as to ensure rapid drainage during and following rainfall and shall at all times be so drained as to be free from stagnant pools. B. The drainage from the mobile home park site should be handled in such a way that the Town can be assured that there will not be an increase in the rate of runoff leaving the site. Downstream impacts and necessary mitigation measures should be considered.
Section 94-30 of Clarkson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 94 establishes surface drainage standards for mobile home parks. The rule requires that the land be adequately sized, kept clear of heavy brush or weeds, and graded so that rainwater drains away quickly without forming stagnant pools. It also calls for managing site drainage so that the rate of stormwater runoff leaving the property does not increase, with attention given to any downstream effects and any steps needed to address them.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home parks in Clarkson should maintain their properties in compliance with § 94-30 by keeping grounds clear of dense brush and weeds and ensuring the site is properly graded for rapid stormwater drainage. A compliant operator generally monitors the site after rainfall events to confirm that no stagnant pools are forming and that overall runoff rates leaving the property have not increased. Downstream drainage impacts and any mitigation measures are part of the considerations a responsible park operator typically documents and addresses proactively.

Residents of mobile home parks in Clarkson are protected by § 94-30, which requires the park grounds to be properly drained, free of stagnant water, and clear of heavy brush or weed growth. If a tenant observes persistent pooling water, overgrown vegetation, or drainage conditions that appear to violate these standards, they may consider contacting the Town of Clarkson's code enforcement office to report the concern. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with local housing codes can also help residents understand what options are generally available when a park's drainage conditions fall short of what § 94-30 describes.
