Definitions

In these rules:

• "Mobile Home" means The Mobile Home situated on the Pitch

• "Park" means The Meadow Mobile Home Park

• "Pitch" means the land on which your Mobile Home is sited and as defined in  your written  statement

• "We" and “Our" refers to the Park Owner.

• “You" and "Your" refers to the Occupier of a Park Home

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 You occupy Your Mobile Home Park and should be read in conjunction with the Mobile Homes Act 1983, as amended, your written statement, the site licence, as amended from time to time and, if applicable, Your tenancy agreement.

If at any time an Occupier rents a Mobile Home other than under an agreement to which The Mobile Homes Act 1983 applies as amended, then rules 2 and rule 24 do not apply, as someone renting a Mobile Home would not be responsible for exterior maintenance or gas/electrical installation.

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

• they are to apply only from the date on which they take effect, which is 3rd December 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 and which would not have been a breach of the rules in existence before that date.
