PARK RULES FOR CHURCH HOUSE PARK

Mobile Home Park Rules Terms/ Condition Forms part of your Agreement

The following rules of occupation are for the good management of mobile Home Parks and the benefit of all who use them. These rules form part of the agreement by which you occupy your pitch in accordance with the Mobile Home Act (1983).

These rules have not been complied to restrict residents but rather to ensure that they may live peacefully in unspoilt surroundings. It will be appreciated that mobile home residents lives in much closer proximity with other occupiers than a house dweller therefore, certain rules have to be complied in the occupiers interests. Other rules are necessary so that the visual amenities of the park are preserved.
