Fishkill, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 106 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 106-14
Walkways
Operative Text
All mobile home parks shall be provided with safe, convenient, all-season pedestrian walkways as determined necessary by the Town Board to: A. Connect individual mobile home sites, park roadways and community facilities. B. Provide for pedestrian circulation along all park roadways (minimum width: four feet). C. Connect mobile homes to common walks, driveways, parking areas or park roadways (minimum width: three feet).
Section 106-14 of Fishkill's Code of Ordinances requires that all mobile home parks include pedestrian walkways that are safe, usable year-round, and sufficient to connect home sites, roads, and shared facilities. The Town Board determines what walkways are necessary, and the code sets minimum widths: four feet for walkways running along park roadways and three feet for paths connecting individual homes to common areas. This rule establishes a baseline infrastructure standard for pedestrian access throughout mobile home park communities.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home parks in Fishkill must ensure their properties comply with the walkway standards set out in § 106-14, which means maintaining all-season pedestrian paths at the specified minimum widths—four feet along roadways and three feet connecting homes to shared areas. Compliant operators generally conduct periodic inspections to confirm that walkways remain safe and passable in all weather conditions and that any new construction or site changes preserve required pedestrian connections. Staying in communication with the Town Board is also part of responsible compliance, since that body holds authority to determine what walkways are deemed necessary under this section.
