This chapter shall be known and cited as the "Town of Wilson, New York,
Mobile Home Park Ordinance."
It is the purpose of this chapter to promote the health, safety, comfort,
convenience and the general welfare of the community and to protect and preserve
the property of the Town of Wilson and its inhabitants by regulating mobile

indicated:

and maintain a mobile home park under the provisions of this chapter and regulations
issued hereunder.
A portable unit designed and built to be towed on its own chassis,
comprised of frame and wheels, connected to utilities and designed without

may be folded, collapsed or telescoped when being towed and expanded later
to provide additional cubic capacity, as well as two or more separately towable
components designed to be joined into one integral unit capable of being again
separated into the components for repeated towing. Mobile units can be designed
to be used for residential, commercial, educational or industrial purposes,
excluding, however, travel trailers, motorized homes, pickup coaches and camping
trailers. A "mobile home" should not be confused with a travel trailer, which
is towed by an automobile, can be operated independently of utility connections,
is limited in width to eight feet and in length to 32 feet and is designed
to be used principally as a temporary vacation dwelling.
