Johnson City, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 176 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 176-5
Registration of park occupants
Operative Text
A. Duty of licensee. It shall be the duty of each person licensed under the provisions of this chapter to operate a mobile home park to keep a register containing a record of all mobile home owners and occupants located within the park. The register shall contain the following information: (1) The name and address of each mobile home occupant. (2) The state, territory or county issuing licenses for each mobile home and motor vehicle. B. Inspection and destruction of register. The park shall keep the register available for inspection at all times by law enforcement officers, public health officials and other officials whose duties necessitate acquisition of the information contained in the register. The register record for each occupant registered shall not be destroyed for a period of one (1) year following the date of departure of the registrant from the park.
Section 176-5 of the Johnson City, N.Y., Code of Ordinances requires that every licensed mobile home park operator maintain a written register of all residents and occupants within the park. The register must include each occupant's name and address, as well as the issuing jurisdiction for any mobile home and motor vehicle licenses. The register must be kept accessible to law enforcement, public health officials, and other authorized officials at all times, and individual records must be retained for at least one year after a resident departs.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 176-5, a compliant mobile home park operator maintains an up-to-date register that captures each occupant's name, address, and the state, territory, or county that issued licenses for their mobile home and motor vehicle. Operators generally establish a routine intake process to collect this information when new occupants arrive and update records as circumstances change. The register is kept in a location accessible to law enforcement and public health officials at all times, and departure records are preserved for a full year after a resident leaves the park.

Section 176-5 establishes that the park operator—not the occupant—bears the primary duty to maintain the registration register, meaning residents have a corresponding interest in ensuring their information is accurately recorded upon move-in. Tenants who believe a park is failing to comply with this provision may raise the issue with local code enforcement or public health officials, who are among the authorized parties entitled to inspect the register. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Johnson City, N.Y., municipal code can help residents understand how this registration requirement intersects with other protections available to mobile home park occupants.
