Licensing requirements
Operative Text
A. Required. It shall be unlawful for any person to establish, maintain, operate or conduct any mobile home park without a license issued by the City Clerk. B. Application. An application for a mobile home park license shall be made to the City Clerk upon a form furnished by such official. Such application shall contain: (1) The name and address of the owner of the premises; (2) The name and address of the applicant and the nature and extent of his interest in the business for which a license is desired; (3) The location and plot plan of the park, and the number of units to be provided for therein; (4) Any other information required by the City Clerk. C. Fee. An application for a mobile home park license shall be accompanied by a fee that shall be established by resolution of the Common Council. Such fee may thereafter be amended from time to time by like resolution. D. Term. A mobile home park license shall expire at the end of the calendar year. E. Display. A mobile home park license shall be displayed in the park's office. F. Restriction on issuance. No mobile home park license shall be issued for the construction or operation of a park in violation of the zoning or other ordinances of the city. G. Revocation or suspension. After a hearing affording due process, the City Manager may suspend or revoke a mobile home park license if its holder has violated any of the provisions of this chapter or any laws, ordinances or regulations relating to such parks. A person whose license permit has been suspended or revoked may appeal such decision to the Common Council by requesting a hearing before the Council. Such requests shall be made within 10 days after receipt of notice of the action of the City Manager. The Council shall then hear and decide the matter within a reasonable time.
Section 92-9 of Oneida's Code of Ordinances establishes that operating a mobile home park within the city requires a license issued by the City Clerk. The license must be renewed annually, displayed in the park's office, and cannot be granted for any park that would violate local zoning or other city ordinances. The City Manager has authority to suspend or revoke a license after a due-process hearing if the license holder has violated applicable rules, and the license holder may appeal that decision to the Common Council within 10 days of receiving notice.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 92-9, operators of mobile home parks in Oneida are expected to obtain a license from the City Clerk before establishing or operating a park, submitting a completed application that includes ownership details, a plot plan, and the number of units. Compliant operators renew their license before the end of each calendar year, pay the fee set by Common Council resolution, and keep the license visibly displayed in the park's office. Operators should also ensure ongoing compliance with all applicable chapter provisions and city ordinances, since the City Manager may initiate a suspension or revocation hearing for any violations under § 92-9(G).
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 92-9 requires that any mobile home park operating in Oneida hold a valid, current license from the City Clerk, which means residents have a basis to verify whether their park is properly licensed. If a park is operating without a license or in violation of city ordinances, tenants may raise that fact with the City Clerk or City Manager, whose office holds enforcement authority under § 92-9(G). Tenant-rights organizations or legal aid services can help residents understand how unlicensed operation or a license revocation proceeding might affect their housing situation.
