Location of mobile home
Operative Text
No mobile home shall be located upon any land or premises within the Village other than at prescribed mobile home parks unless it is located on a plot of land with an area of at least 7,500 square feet. The area shall be well drained and consist of suitable natural soil or well-consolidated inert fill.
Highland Falls, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 139 § 139-1 restricts where mobile homes may be placed within the Village. A mobile home may only be sited outside of a designated mobile home park if it sits on a plot of at least 7,500 square feet of well-drained land with suitable natural soil or well-consolidated inert fill. The rule is intended to ensure that mobile home placements meet minimum land-quality and size standards regardless of whether a formal park is involved.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers considering placing or permitting a mobile home on land within Highland Falls should be aware that ch. 139 § 139-1 sets a firm minimum lot size of 7,500 square feet for any mobile home located outside a designated mobile home park. Compliant operators generally verify that the site is well drained and that the soil or fill material meets the ordinance's standards before any placement occurs. Keeping documentation of lot measurements and soil or fill conditions is a practice commonly associated with demonstrating compliance with this provision.

Under Highland Falls, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 139 § 139-1, a mobile home placed outside a designated park must sit on at least 7,500 square feet of appropriately drained and composed land, which is a baseline protection that applies to your living situation. If a mobile home appears to have been placed on a substandard or undersized lot, residents may have grounds to raise that placement as a concern with Village officials or code enforcement. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York municipal code can help residents understand what options may be available when a placement appears to fall short of these requirements.
