Walden, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 174 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 174-5
Permits
Operative Text
No person shall maintain or operate a mobile home court which falls within the purview of Chapter VII of the New York State Sanitary Code without first having obtained a permit from the state, county or city health department office having jurisdiction.
Section 174-5 of Walden, N.Y., Code of Ordinances Chapter 174 establishes that operating or maintaining a mobile home court covered by Chapter VII of the New York State Sanitary Code is prohibited unless a valid permit has first been obtained from the appropriate state, county, or city health department. The rule creates a permitting prerequisite — not a general licensing scheme — tied specifically to the scope of the state sanitary code. Any mobile home court that falls outside Chapter VII's coverage is not addressed by this provision.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and owners of mobile home courts in Walden should be aware that § 174-5 requires a permit from the relevant health authority — whether state, county, or city — before the facility may be maintained or operated under Chapter VII of the New York State Sanitary Code. Compliant operators typically identify which health department has jurisdiction over their specific location, apply for the required permit before commencing or continuing operations, and keep that permit current. Maintaining documentation of the permit on-site is a common practice among operators seeking to demonstrate ongoing compliance.

Section 174-5 of Walden's Code of Ordinances Chapter 174 gives residents of mobile home courts a basis to inquire whether the court they live in holds the required health department permit. Tenants who believe a court is operating without the permit required under this provision may contact the state, county, or city health department with jurisdiction to ask about the facility's permit status or to report a potential violation. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New York housing law can help residents understand what options may be available when a landlord appears to be operating without required permits.
