PARK RULES FOR WOODLANDS PARK HOMES
Preface
The following rules for occupation are for the good management of the Park and benefit and safety of all who live there and their visitors so all may live peacefully in pleasant surroundings. All the rules must be adhered to.
In these rules:
- "occupier" means anyone who occupies a park home ,whether under an Agreement to which the Mobile Homes Act 1983 applies or under a tenancy or 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.
None of the rules is to have retrospective effect. Accordingly:
- They are to apply only from the date on which they take effect, which is 16 October 2014
- No occupier who is in occupation on that date will be treated as being in breach due to circumstances which were in existence on that date which would not have been a breach of the rules in existence before that date.
-
The Units
No external alterations or additions to the pitch are permitted without the prior written permission of the Park owner.
-
Condition of the Pitch
- Gardens must be kept neat and tidy and vegetables may only be grown in back gardens. Occupiers are warned that growing vegetables increases risk of attracting vermin.
- Washing lines are permitted in back gardens but occupiers are asked not to leave washing out longer than necessary.
- Occupiers must ensure that fences surrounding their plot are kept in good repair at all times. The cost of repair/replacement of a joint boundary fence should be shared between the neighbouring occupiers.
- Occupiers whose homes border the Park are responsible for trimming any hedges, shrubs etc. that border their gardens.
- Bonfires including incinerators, are not permitted at any time.
- Barbecues are permitted but the following safety rules should be followed:
- Ensure the barbecue is on a flat site, well away from a shed, trees or shrubs and not be left unattended.
- Keep children, garden games and pets well away from the cooking area.

Neighbours must also be considered as cooking smells may invade their homes. Occupiers must also inform their neighbours if they intend to have a barbecue and will bear individual responsibility in case the fire spreads.
