Fallsburg, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 156 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 156-3
Nonapplicability
Operative Text
This chapter shall not apply to mobile homes and mobile home courts, or to transient type occupancies and uses including, but not limited to, nursing and convalescent homes, hotels, motels, tourist camps, farm labor camps, travel trailers and trailer parks, and other forms of temporary housing.
Chapter 156 of the Fallsburg, N.Y., Code of Ordinances draws a clear boundary around its own reach: under § 156-3, the chapter's rules do not cover mobile homes, mobile home courts, or a range of transient and temporary housing arrangements. The listed exclusions include nursing and convalescent homes, hotels, motels, tourist camps, farm labor camps, travel trailers, trailer parks, and similar short-term or non-permanent occupancies. Any housing type that falls within these categories sits entirely outside the scope of whatever requirements or protections the chapter otherwise establishes.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of properties such as hotels, motels, mobile home courts, nursing homes, or farm labor camps should be aware that § 156-3 places those facilities outside the coverage of Fallsburg Code ch. 156 entirely. A compliant operator in these categories generally does not apply ch. 156's procedural or substantive requirements to those units, while remaining subject to any other applicable local, state, or federal regulations that do govern their property type. Operators of conventional rental housing that does not fall into any of the § 156-3 exclusions would generally treat ch. 156 as fully applicable to their operations.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants living in mobile homes, mobile home courts, hotels, motels, nursing or convalescent homes, tourist camps, farm labor camps, travel trailers, or trailer parks should be aware that § 156-3 of the Fallsburg Code places those living arrangements outside the protections of ch. 156. Residents in these excluded categories may still have rights under other state or local laws, and a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider can help identify which alternative frameworks might apply. Tenants in conventional rental housing who believe their unit is incorrectly being treated as an excluded category under § 156-3 may wish to consult available local resources to understand how the chapter's coverage is determined.
