No mobile home shall be parked outside of a duly licensed mobile home park in the Town of Mamakating, except that any owner or lessee of land or contractor engaged by the owner or lessee of land located in the Town of Mamakating may use a mobile home or mobile homes as a field office or dressing room for workmen on construction projects, survey projects and upon other similar work projects outside a licensed mobile home park; provided, however, that the contractor, owner and/or lessee of the mobile home or land upon which it is situated shall apply to the Town Board and, after compliance with the provisions of this chapter and payment of the fee set forth hereinafter, be granted a permit to park the mobile home on said parcel of land for the duration of the particular work project.

In the event that the contractor, owner or lessee desires an additional extension thereof, a written application shall be submitted to the Town Board of the Town of Mamakating, which extension may be granted or denied by said Town Board after an examination of the facts and circumstances concerning the same and after the applicant has been accorded an opportunity to speak in behalf of such application.

Plain English

Section 131-15 of Mamakating's Code of Ordinances prohibits parking a mobile home outside a licensed mobile home park within the Town, with a narrow exception for construction-related use. Landowners, lessees, or their contractors may temporarily place a mobile home on a work site to serve as a field office or workers' dressing room, but only after obtaining a permit from the Town Board. The permit runs for up to two years or until the project is finished—whichever comes first—and may be extended by the Town Board under certain conditions, with any further extension requiring a written application and a hearing opportunity. Once the permit expires or the project concludes, the mobile home must be removed from the property.

For Property Managers

Under § 131-15, property owners and lessees who need a mobile home on-site for construction, survey, or similar work must secure a Town Board permit before placing the unit on the parcel. Compliant operators submit a permit application, pay the required fee, and ensure the mobile home is used only as a field office or workers' dressing room for the duration of the approved project. If the project runs long, operators file a written extension request with the Town Board of Mamakating in advance of permit expiration, and they arrange prompt removal of the mobile home once the permit period ends or the project is complete.

For Tenants

Section 131-15 is primarily directed at landowners, lessees, and contractors rather than residential tenants, but anyone living in or near a mobile home placed outside a licensed park in Mamakating should be aware that such placement is generally prohibited without a Town Board permit. If a mobile home appears to be parked on a site without the required permit—or remains after a permit has expired or a project has concluded—that may constitute a code violation that can be reported to the Town of Mamakating. Individuals with questions about whether a specific placement complies with § 131-15 may wish to contact the Town Board directly or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with local ordinance enforcement.
