Enforcement
Operative Text
A. This Article shall be enforced by the Zoning Officer of the Town of Clarkson and/or such other officials as may be designated by the Town Board. B. Said Officer and his representatives shall be authorized and have the right in the performance of their duties to enter any mobile home park and make such inspections as are necessary to determine compliance with this article. Such entrance and inspection shall be accomplished at reasonable times and in emergencies, whenever necessary to protect the public interest. Individual mobile homes and individual accessory buildings for mobile homes may be entered only at reasonable times, with just cause, on an appointment basis when the tenant is at home, except in emergencies, whenever necessary to protect the public interest. The park owner/manager shall be responsible for providing access to all parts of the premises to the enforcement officer or his agents. C. The enforcement officer or his representative shall make an inspection of each mobile home park as may be necessary, but at least once each year, investigate all complaints made under this article and, upon detection of any violation, in addition to any other penalties herein provided, serve a written notice upon the park owner or his representative as designated on the license application, directing the park owner to correct the conditions therein specified within not more than 30 days after the date of delivery of such order. The order may also contain an outline of remedial action, which, if taken, will effect compliances. (1) Service of the order may be made personally upon the park owner or such other person as may be designated on the license application or by registered mail. (2) If such violation is not corrected within the period specified in the order or within any written extension of such time, the enforcement officer shall serve a notice, in writing, as provided in Subsection C(1) above, requiring the park owner to appear before the Town Board at a time specified in such notice to show cause at a hearing why the mobile home park license should not be revoked.
Clarkson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 94 § 94-47 establishes how the Town of Clarkson enforces its mobile home park regulations. The Zoning Officer — and any other officials the Town Board designates — is authorized to inspect mobile home parks at least once a year, investigate complaints, and enter individual homes only at reasonable times, with just cause, and by appointment when the tenant is present (except in emergencies). When a violation is found, the officer must issue a written correction order giving the park owner up to 30 days to fix the problem; if the owner fails to comply, the matter can be escalated to a Town Board hearing where the park's license may be revoked.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Clarkson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 94 § 94-47, compliant mobile home park operators generally maintain open access to all common areas of the premises for the Zoning Officer and authorized representatives during inspections. When a written correction order is received, operators typically document the steps taken to remedy the cited conditions within the 30-day window and communicate any need for a written time extension before the deadline passes. Failure to resolve violations can trigger a Town Board hearing at which the park's operating license is at risk of revocation, making timely response to enforcement notices a standard part of park management practice.

Clarkson, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 94 § 94-47 provides meaningful protections for residents of individual mobile homes: inspectors may enter a private home only at reasonable times, with just cause, and on an appointment basis when the tenant is home, unless a genuine emergency exists. Tenants who believe park conditions violate the article have the right to file a complaint with the Town's Zoning Officer, who is required to investigate complaints made under this provision. Residents who want to understand how these inspection and complaint rights apply to their situation may find it helpful to consult a local tenant-rights organization or legal aid office familiar with New York mobile home park law.
