Lackawanna, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 154 § 154-3
Scope
Operative Text
This chapter shall apply to mobile homes used, or intended to be used, for year-round dwelling accommodations in fixed locations and to mobile home courts.
Section 154-3 of Lackawanna's Code of Ordinances establishes the scope of Chapter 154, limiting its reach to mobile homes that are used—or intended to be used—as permanent, year-round residences at fixed locations, as well as to the mobile home courts where such homes are situated. The provision does not apply to mobile homes used only temporarily or seasonally, nor to those that are not stationed at a fixed location. By defining this scope, the chapter sets the boundary for which properties and communities must comply with the regulations that follow.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home courts in Lackawanna should be aware that Chapter 154, beginning with the scope provision at § 154-3, governs their properties if those courts contain homes used or intended for year-round, fixed-location dwelling. Compliant operators generally assess whether each unit on their property meets the year-round, fixed-location threshold that triggers the chapter's requirements. Owners of mobile homes rented out as permanent residences at fixed sites similarly fall within the chapter's reach and should review the full set of obligations that follow § 154-3.
