Spencer, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 98 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 98-13
Lot size
Operative Text
All mobile home lots (not in a mobile home park) shall be at least one acre in size and must have sufficient width and depth to completely surround a circle with a diameter of 150 feet.
Section 98-13 of Spencer, N.Y.'s Code of Ordinances establishes minimum land requirements for mobile home lots that are situated outside of a mobile home park. Each such lot must be at least one acre in total area and must also be large enough in both width and depth to fully enclose a circle measuring 150 feet in diameter. Both conditions — the acreage floor and the geometric dimension test — must be satisfied simultaneously.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers placing a mobile home on a standalone lot in Spencer, N.Y. generally ensure that the parcel meets the dual standards set out in § 98-13: a minimum of one acre in total area and sufficient width and depth to circumscribe a 150-foot-diameter circle. Compliant operators typically verify these measurements through a survey before siting a unit, since both criteria must be met independently. Keeping documentation of lot dimensions on file can support a smooth permitting process with local authorities.

If a tenant has concerns about whether a lot meets these requirements, they may raise the issue with the local code enforcement or zoning office, or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with New York housing regulations. Reviewing the recorded lot survey or plat can be a useful starting point for understanding whether the parcel conforms to § 98-13.
