Park Rules for Hatch Park

Preface

In these rules:

• "occupier" means anyone who occupies a park home, whether under an Agreement to which the Mobile Homes Act 1983 applies
• "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. These rules form part of the agreement by which homeowners occupy the pitch in accordance with the Mobile Homes Act 1983, as amended.

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

• They are to apply only from the date on which they take effect;
• 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 and which would not have been a breach of the rules in existence before that date.

Condition of the Pitch

1. The planting of trees is subject to the owner's prior written approval of types and position (approval will not be withheld or delayed unreasonably). Gardens will be left intact when the occupier vacates the pitch.

2. You must not allow hedges or conifer trees to exceed the height of 2 metres.

3. You must not keep inflammable substance on the park except in quantities reasonable for domestic use. For fire safety reasons no mini gas or oil tanks are allowed.

4. You must not erect fences or other means of enclosure unless you have obtained our prior written approval (which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). You must position fences and any other means of enclosure so as to comply with the park's site licence and fire safety requirements.

5. Any fences on the park must be capable of being moved.

6. Wheels of the mobile home must not be removed, nor the Mobile Home re­ positioned.

7. You must not make any improvement to the pitch unless you have obtained our prior written approval which will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

8. For reasons of ventilation and safety you keep the area underneath the mobile home clear and not use it as a storage space.

Refuse

9. You are responsible for the disposal of all household, recyclable and garden waste in approved containers which must not be over filled.

10. You must not deposit any waste or rubbish other than in the approved containers on any part of the park (including any individual pitch).

Nuisance

11. Musical instruments, all forms of recorded music players, radios, other similar appliances and motor vehicles must not be used to cause nuisance to other occupiers, especially between the hours of 10.30pm and 8.00 am.

Storage

19. You must not erect any sheds or other storage receptacles without our prior written approval (which will not be withheld or delayed unreasonably). Where you source the shed yourself the design, size and standard must have been approved by us in writing (approval will not be withheld or delayed unreasonably).
20. You mu st ensure that any shed or other structure erected in the separation space between park homes is of non-combustible construction and positioned so as to comply the park's site licence conditions and fire safety requirements. The separation space is the space between your park home and any neighbouring home.
