Spencer, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 98 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 98-4
Compliance required
Operative Text
A. No person shall occupy or permit to be occupied any mobile home on any mobile home lot without first complying with the provisions of this chapter and a certificate of occupancy having been issued. B. All mobile homes in the Town of Spencer shall comply with all applicable laws, statutes, codes, rules and regulations, ordinances and local laws.
Spencer, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 98 § 98-4 establishes that no mobile home may be occupied—and no owner or operator may allow one to be occupied—unless the requirements of Chapter 98 have been met and a certificate of occupancy has been issued. Beyond that threshold requirement, every mobile home in the Town of Spencer must also conform to all other applicable laws, codes, rules, and ordinances. The provision functions as a broad compliance gateway, tying lawful occupancy to both local chapter requirements and the wider body of applicable law.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Spencer, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 98 § 98-4, operators of mobile home lots generally ensure that a valid certificate of occupancy is in place before any mobile home is occupied on a lot they manage. Compliant operators also maintain ongoing adherence to all applicable state and local codes, not just the specific requirements of Chapter 98. Keeping documentation of certificates of occupancy and tracking relevant regulatory updates are practices commonly associated with meeting this provision's dual compliance standard.
