PARK RULES FOR THE RANCH RESIDENTIAL PARK

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.

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 when they are agreed upon.

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.

These rules also apply (for so long as they live on the park) to the park owner and any employees.

Condition of the Pitch

1. The occupier is responsible for maintaining their plot to ensure it remains tidy and any waste including garden waste must be disposed of in the correct manner.

2. Any new fences and any other means of enclosure are to be approved in writing (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 conditions and fire safety requirements.

Storage

3. You must not have more than one storage shed on the pitch, unless it already exists before making these rules. Where you source the shed yourself the design, standard and size of the shed must be approved by us in writing (approval will not be withheld or delayed unreasonably). The footprint of the shed shall not exceed a size as agreed with Park Owner which is appropriate with plot size. You must 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 with the park's site licence conditions and fire safety requirements. There should be no storage of any flammable items etc under the home. This area is to left clear for access to mains services.
