Hamburg Town, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 165 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 165-8
Inspections; revocation of license
Operative Text
A. Before a mobile home park commences operation, the Enforcement Officer shall make an inspection of the premises to determine that all of the requirements of this chapter have been complied with before he grants and issues a certificate of occupancy. B. If the Enforcement Officer finds that such mobile home park is not being maintained in a clean, orderly and sanitary condition or that such mobile home park is not being operated in accordance with the provisions of this chapter, he shall serve upon the licensee, his agent or employee an order, in writing, directing that the conditions therein specified be remedied within five days after service of such order. If, after the expiration of said period, such conditions are not corrected in accordance with said order, the Enforcement Officer shall serve a notice, in writing, upon such mobile home park licensee requiring the licensee to appear before the Town Justice of the Town of Hamburg at a time to be specified in such notice and show cause why such license should not be otherwise revoked. The Town Justice may, after a hearing at which time the testimony and witnesses of the Enforcement Officer and the licensee shall be heard, revoke said license if the conditions described in the original order have not been corrected or if the licensee has violated or caused to have violated any of the other provisions of this chapter not so cited in the original order of the Enforcement Officer. Upon the revocation of such license, the premises affected shall forthwith cease to be used for the purpose of a mobile home park, and all mobile homes shall be removed therefrom within a period of time as indicated by the revocation action of the Town Board at the expense of the mobile home park owner.
Hamburg Town Code § 165-8 establishes a two-stage oversight process for mobile home parks. Before a park opens, the Enforcement Officer must inspect the premises and confirm compliance with Chapter 165 before issuing a certificate of occupancy. Once operating, a park found to be unsanitary, disorderly, or otherwise out of compliance can be ordered to correct conditions within five days; failure to comply can trigger a hearing before the Town Justice and, ultimately, revocation of the park's operating license, requiring all mobile homes to be removed at the owner's expense.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home parks in Hamburg Town should be aware that § 165-8 requires a pre-opening inspection and certificate of occupancy before any park begins operation. Once licensed, maintaining clean, orderly, and sanitary conditions at all times is central to continued compliance, as the Enforcement Officer may issue a written correction order with a five-day deadline at any point. If that order goes unaddressed, the matter proceeds to the Town Justice, where a hearing can result in full license revocation and a requirement that the owner bear the cost of removing all mobile homes from the site.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Residents of mobile home parks in Hamburg Town have an interest in knowing that § 165-8 gives the Enforcement Officer authority to order corrections when a park is not maintained in a clean, orderly, and sanitary condition. If a park's license is ultimately revoked following a Town Justice hearing, the timeline for vacating the premises is set by the Town Board's revocation action. Tenants who believe their park is out of compliance may consider contacting the Hamburg Town Enforcement Officer directly or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization to understand what options may be available to them.
