SITE RULES FOR MARSHMOOR PARK

("the Park")

The following Site Rules are intended to ensure that acceptable standards are maintained on the Park for the benefit of residents generally, and to promote and maintain community cohesion on the Park.

These Rules form part of the terms of the occupation agreement between the Park owner and each resident living on the Park, and must be followed to ensure that good order is maintained on the Park at all times for the benefit of all occupiers.

The Pitch

Private gardens are to be kept neat and tidy and the planting of hedges, trees and certain shrubs will only be permitted with the park owner's permission (which will not be unreasonably withheld). Occupiers who have been given permission to erect a fence must comply with the maximum height and construction of fences as stipulated in the site licence conditions. In consideration to all residents, grass cutting should not take place before 10.30 am on Sundays. Gardens are to be left intact when the occupier vacates the pitch.

2. Occupiers are not permitted to keep any flammable substances on the Park except for their reasonably necessary domestic use.
3. For health and safety reasons occupiers may not store any combustible items underneath their home at any time.
4. For the safety of occupiers, incinerators, pyrotechnics and other external fires are not permitted on the Park. However, barbecues are permitted provided the relevant occupier has taken adequate firefighting precautions.
5. No explosive materials may be kept on the Park.
6. No guns, firearms or other offensive weapons may be kept on the Park except where the occupier holds a valid licence from the appropriate authority. In such case the occupier must take all necessary precautions to keep the weapon stored safely. No such weapons may be used on the Park at any time, even where the occupier holds a valid licence.
7. Occupiers or their guests must not damage, remove or interfere with any equipment, property, flora or fauna on the Park which is owned by the Park owner or any third party.
8. Occupiers are responsible for ensuring that all electrical and gas installations and appliances in their home are safe and comply with current standards.
9. Occupiers are responsible for ensuring that their pitches are maintained in a safe and accessible condition at all times.

10. Occupiers must maintain their homes in a sound state of repair and condition (including being capable of movement from one place to another without undue risk of damage) at all times.
11. Any occupier who wishes to carry out improvements to their home or pitch must make a written request to the Park owner in advance, setting out the details of the proposed improvements, along with plans/sketches of said improvements. No improvements may be carried out to the pitch or to the exterior of the home without the prior written permission of the Park owner, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

Sheds and Other Structures

12. A storage shed or other structure is permitted per pitch. The size, type, material, location and design of the shed must be approved in writing in advance by the Park owner (which will not be unreasonably withheld). No shed which exceeds 6 feet in length, 5 feet in width or 7 feet in height will be permitted. It is the responsibility of the occupier to ensure that their shed is adequately maintained and kept in a neat and tidy condition at all times.
13. Any shed or other structure erected on the pitch must be made of non­combustible material, and must comply with the conditions of the Park's site licence.

Refuse

14. Occupiers are responsible for the disposal of their household waste, including garden and recyclable waste. Waste must be deposited in the appropriate bins or containers provided, which must be left in the correct location for collection by the local authority on the appropriate day.

Prohibition of Business Activities

15. The Park is intended for residential use only. Occupiers are not permitted to carry on any business activities from their mobile home, their pitch or any other part of the Park.

Age Limit

16. No person under the age of 25 years is permitted to live on the Park. The Park owner may require an occupier to provide proof of age.
17. Relatives and friends under this age are permitted to stay over but for no more than two weeks in any given month.

Noise Nuisance

18. Musical instruments, music players and other appliances must not be used in such a way as may cause a nuisance or disturbance to others, particularly between the hours of 10:30 p.m. and 8:00 a.m.

     19. Occupiers may not keep any pet or animal in their park home or on their pitch or the Park except for the following:

1. not more than one domestic cat. Cats must not be permitted to upset or cause a nuisance to other users of the Park, and must not despoil the Park; or
2. Not more than one other animal of a type commonly kept as a domestic pet, which must be securely housed in a cage, aquarium or similar facility.

For the avoidance of doubt dogs are not permitted on the Park, subject to rule 21.

20.       These rules do not have retrospective effect. If you were permitted to keep a

pet on the Park under the previous rules you will not be treated as being in breach when these rules take effect. However, when the pet dies or leaves the Park it can only be replaced if this would comply with these rules.

21.      Nothing in these rules prevents an occupier from keeping an assistance dog if

this is required to support their disability and Assistance Dogs UK or any successor body has issued the occupier with an Identification Book or other appropriate evidence of requirement.

Water Supply

22.      All occupiers must take appropriate steps to safeguard their external water

pipes against damage or bursting from frost. Occupiers are responsible for maintaining the visible pipework on their pitch at all times.

Vacant Pitches

their guests is not permitted, and occupiers must not tamper with or move building materials, plant or machinery.
