HALL HILLS PARK RULES

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 other agreement.
• "you" and "your" refers to the home owner or other occupier of a park home
• "we" and "our" refers to the park owner.

The following rules form part of the Agreement by which the homeowners of Hall Hills Park occupy their pitch in accordance with the Mobile Homes Act 1983 (as amended).

These rules are in place to ensure acceptable standards are maintained on Hall Hills Park, which will be of general benefit to occupiers, and to promote and maintain community cohesion.

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 4.1 about the colour of the exterior of the home, as someone renting their home would not be responsible for the exterior maintenance.

None of these rules is to have retrospective effect. Accordingly:
