Whereas no single trailer on individual land or lots is permitted within the Township by Chapter 245, Land Use and Development; however, where a single trailer was located or maintained on individual land or lots prior to the present zoning ordinance, such owner may not expand or be permitted an enlarged use except that such expansion or enlargement must comply with the present standards and requirements of the Zoning and/or Building Code ordinances of the Township.
A.
Any trailer existing and/or maintained on property
prior to the present Zoning Ordinance owned by the owner of the property
on which it is located shall be deemed real property and shall be
subject to taxation as all other real property within the Township.
B.
Any trailer not owned by the owner of the land or
lots upon which the trailer is situated and which was maintained or
existed on the land or lots prior to the adoption of the present Zoning
Ordinance shall be considered and deemed real property and the trailer
shall be assessed and taxed at the general tax rate against the owner
of the land.
The trailer owner shall comply with all proper
police, fire and health regulations imposed by the Township ordinances.
The holder of any mobile home license shall abide by all rules and
regulations of the Board of Health and any ordinances of the Board
and shall maintain the trailer in a sanitary condition at all times.
The trailer shall be properly connected to an
underground sanitary system and shall have a proper well to provide
an adequate supply of water in compliance with existing Health Code
and Building Code of the Township.
In the event the existing trailer is removed
for the purpose of repair and/or replacement, it shall be repaired
and/or replaced within 60 days; otherwise, the trailer and premises
will be considered and adjudged abandoned in accordance with the intent
of this chapter that no single trailer on individual land or lot is
permitted, other than a trailer park, within the Township.
