Note

The express terms of the home owner's agreement contain an undertaking on the part of the home owner not to allow anything which is or becomes a nuisance, inconvenience or disturbance to other occupiers at the park and this undertaking extends to the behaviour of pets and animals. A similar requirement not to cause a nuisance applies to tenants and again this includes the behaviour of pets and animals.

Note

These rules do not have retrospective effect. If the keeping of the pet complied with the previous rules, an occupier will not be treated as being in breach when the rules take effect. However, when the pet dies or leaves it can only be replaced if this would comply with these rules.

In these rules:

"occupier" means anyone who occupies a park home, whether under an Agreement to which the Mobile Home 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.
