Operative Text
Except as otherwise provided herein, all manufactured home parks and recreational vehicle parks shall be designed, constructed, maintained and operated to meet the following minimum standards: A. Each unit shall be allotted an area of not less than twice the size of the vehicle or structure intended to be located thereon which in no event shall be less than 30 feet by 70 feet for each manufactured home. The corners of each such location shall be clearly defined by appropriate markers. B. All entrances and exits shall be well marked and located so as not to constitute a traffic hazard. Streets and other ways shall be constructed and maintained so that all units are readily accessible to fire and other emergency vehicles. C. Streets and ways shall be lighted at night. D. No trailer, tent or other structure shall be located within 15 feet of any street or way nor within 20 feet of any boundary of such park/camp. E. Every manufactured home park or recreational vehicle park shall be provided with adequate sewage disposal, water supply and garbage disposal facilities which shall meet the standards prescribed by any statute, rule or regulation of the State of New York or authorized board or officer and the Town Board of the Town of Verona. Recreational vehicle parks must have at least a sewage dumping station meeting the minimum specifications and requirements of the State of New York for such installation. F. The owner or managing agent of any manufactured home park or camp shall be of good moral character and reputation and shall manage such park/camp from an office located on or near the premises. He shall maintain a bound book containing a record of the names of persons accommodated in the camp, their home addresses, the make and license number of their automobile and a description of the home occupied, which such record shall be available at all reasonable times to any law enforcement official and any authorized official of the Town of Verona. Such owner or managing agent shall report to the Town Health Officer all cases and suspected cases of communicable diseases effecting any person at such manufactured home park and shall keep such park at all times in a neat and orderly condition so as not to constitute a nuisance or otherwise adversely affect the health, safety, comfort and convenience of persons accommodated at the camp or the general public.
Section 171-7 of Verona, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 171 establishes baseline physical and operational standards that manufactured home parks and recreational vehicle parks must meet. These standards cover lot sizing, street access and lighting, setback distances, utility infrastructure, and owner or manager conduct and recordkeeping. The provision also requires that communicable disease cases be reported to the Town Health Officer and that parks be kept in a neat, orderly condition that does not create a nuisance or threaten public health and safety.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of manufactured home parks and recreational vehicle parks in Verona should be familiar with every requirement listed in § 171-7, as compliance is expected across design, construction, maintenance, and day-to-day operations. A compliant operator generally ensures that each lot meets the minimum 30-by-70-foot dimension, that lot corners are marked, that streets are accessible to emergency vehicles and lit at night, that all structures observe the required setbacks, and that sewage, water, and garbage facilities satisfy both state and Town of Verona standards. The owner or managing agent also typically maintains a bound register of residents and vehicles available to law enforcement and Town officials, reports communicable disease cases to the Town Health Officer, and keeps the park in a consistently neat and orderly condition.

Residents of manufactured home parks and recreational vehicle parks in Verona are entitled to conditions that meet the minimum standards set out in § 171-7, including properly sized and marked lots, accessible and lit streets, adequate sewage and water facilities, and a park kept free of nuisance conditions. If a park appears to fall short of these standards—for example, if emergency vehicle access is obstructed, utilities are inadequate, or the grounds are not maintained—tenants may consider contacting the Town of Verona or the Town Health Officer, who are referenced in § 171-7 as having oversight roles. Tenant-rights organizations or a licensed attorney familiar with New York housing and local ordinance law can help residents understand what options may be available to them.
