Fishkill, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 106 § 106-30 requires every mobile home park to maintain emergency sanitary facilities available to all residents. The rule sets a minimum ratio of one toilet and one lavatory per sex for every 100 mobile home sites or fraction thereof. The facilities must be housed in a building that is accessible to all mobile homes, with individual shower stalls, self-closing compartment doors, screened entrances to block direct views, and sound-resistant walls separating male and female areas up to the ceiling.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home parks subject to Fishkill, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 106 § 106-30 generally ensure that the number of toilets and lavatories meets the one-per-sex-per-100-sites ratio and that the facility building is physically reachable from all mobile home sites. Compliant operators also verify that each toilet is in a separate compartment with a self-closing door, that shower stalls are individual units, and that entrances are screened and interior walls between male and female sections extend fully to the ceiling. Routine inspections of these structural and accessibility features help demonstrate ongoing compliance with the provision.

Residents of mobile home parks in Fishkill have a right under ch. 106 § 106-30 to access emergency sanitary facilities that meet the minimum ratios and privacy standards described in the ordinance. If a park's facilities appear to fall short — for example, if the building is inaccessible, compartments lack self-closing doors, or walls do not reach the ceiling — tenants may document the conditions and consider raising the issue with local code enforcement or municipal authorities. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York housing and mobile home park regulations can help residents understand available options for addressing potential violations.
