PARK RULES FOR KINGCOTT MILL FARM

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.

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 in 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.
