Halfmoon, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 107 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 107-11
Exceptions
Operative Text
None of the provisions of this chapter shall be applicable to the following: A. A mobile home located on the site of a construction project, survey project or other similar work project and which is used solely as a field office or work or tool house in connection with such project, provided that such mobile home is placed on the site on or after the issuance of a building permit and removed from such site within 30 days after the completion of such project or the issuance of the certificate of occupancy, whichever is sooner. B. A factory-manufactured home as described by the Uniform Code, Energy Code, and state and local laws.
Section 107-11 of Halfmoon, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 107 carves out two categories of structures from the chapter's requirements. First, a mobile home used strictly as a field office or work/tool house on a construction or survey project site is exempt, so long as it is placed there after a building permit is issued and removed within 30 days of project completion or certificate of occupancy issuance, whichever comes first. Second, factory-manufactured homes that fall under the definitions provided by the Uniform Code, Energy Code, and applicable state and local laws are also excluded from the chapter's coverage entirely.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and project managers working in Halfmoon should be aware that under § 107-11, a mobile home used solely as a field office or tool house on a permitted work site is not subject to this chapter's rules, provided it is placed on-site only after the building permit is issued and is removed no later than 30 days after project completion or certificate of occupancy issuance. Compliant operators document the permit issuance date and track the removal deadline carefully to stay within the exception's boundaries. Factory-manufactured homes meeting the Uniform Code and Energy Code definitions are separately exempt and are generally treated under those governing frameworks rather than this chapter.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants and prospective residents should understand that § 107-11 means certain structures—specifically temporary work-site mobile homes and qualifying factory-manufactured homes—fall outside the protections and requirements of Halfmoon Code Chapter 107 altogether. If a question arises about whether a particular dwelling qualifies as a factory-manufactured home under the Uniform Code or Energy Code, that classification determines whether this chapter's tenant-related provisions apply. Individuals with concerns about whether their housing is properly covered or exempt may wish to contact the Town of Halfmoon's code enforcement office or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with New York housing law.
