PARK RULES FOR BROOKSIDE PARK

AUGUST 2014.

In these rules:

• ‘Occupier’ means anyone who occupies a park home, whether under an Agreement to which the Mobile Homes Act 2013 applies or under a tenancy of any other agreement
• ‘you’ and ‘your’ refers to the homeowner or other occupier of a park home
• ‘we’ and ‘our’ refers to the park owner.

These rules are in place to ensure acceptable standards are maintained on the park, which will be of general benefit to occupiers, and to promote and maintain community cohesion. They form part of the Agreement by which homeowners occupy the pitch on accordance with the Mobile Homes Act 1983, as amended.

With one exception the rules also apply to any occupiers of park homes who rent their home.

The only rule which does not apply to occupiers who rent their home is rule 31 about the colour of the exterior of the home, as someone renting their home would not be responsible for exterior maintenance.

Condition of the Pitch

1. For reasons of ventilation and safety you must keep the underneath of your home clear and not use it as a storage space.

2. You must not erect fences or other means of enclosure over four feet in height unless they are supported by concrete posts and runners, to be removed for access by fire-fighters and you have obtained our approval (which will not be unreasonably withheld). You must position fences and any other means of enclosure so as to comply the park’s licence conditions and fire safety requirements.

3. All the trees on the park are our property. They must not be interfered with.

4. You must not have external fires, including incinerators. Barbeques are allowed but must not be left unattended and a means to extinguish must be available, should the need arise.

5. You must not keep inflammable substances on the park except in quantities reasonable for domestic use.

Storage

7. You must not have more than one storage shed on the pitch.

You must position the shed so as to comply with the park’s site licence and fire safety requirement.

8. You must not have any storage receptacle on the pitch other than the shed mentioned in rule 7 without approval in writing.
