Mamakating, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 131 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 131-7
Issuance of permit; transferability
Operative Text
A. The Town Clerk of the Town of Mamakating, upon the written application and upon the approval of the same by the Health Officers and the Town Board of the Town of Mamakating and upon receipt of the fee hereinafter provided, shall issue a permit to become effective from the date thereof and to continue in force for the term specified therein, but in no event longer than through the 31st day of December next succeeding, for the use of the premises therein specified as a mobile home park, which permit shall specify the number of mobile home spaces which may be used in said park. B. Transferability. (1) Such permit shall not be transferable or assignable. (2) In the event, however, of transfer of title to a licensed mobile home park to someone other than the licensee, such permit may be transferred to the purchaser upon application therefor to the Town Board of the Town of Mamakating and upon proof that the mobile home park complies with this chapter.
Section 131-7 of Mamakating's Code of Ordinances establishes the process by which the Town Clerk issues permits for mobile home parks, requiring written application, approval from the Health Officers and Town Board, and payment of a fee. Each permit specifies the number of allowable mobile home spaces and expires no later than December 31 of the year it is issued. While permits are generally non-transferable, an exception exists when ownership of the park changes hands — in that case, the new owner may apply to the Town Board to have the permit transferred, provided the park is shown to be in compliance with the chapter.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of mobile home parks in Mamakating should be aware that under § 131-7, a valid permit must be obtained through the Town Clerk each year, with approval from both the Health Officers and the Town Board before operations may continue. Compliant operators ensure their permit accurately reflects the number of authorized mobile home spaces and renew before the December 31 expiration. When a park changes ownership, the incoming owner typically submits a transfer application to the Town Board and demonstrates that the property meets all requirements of Chapter 131 before assuming operations under the existing permit.
