Mobile homes shall not be placed on a lot within the village limits
of the Village of Albion, except in an approved mobile home park. Existing,
nonconforming mobile homes may continue, but shall not be replaced by another
mobile home.
It shall be unlawful for any person to locate, construct, alter or extend
any mobile home park within the limits of the Village of Albion unless he
or she holds a valid operating permit issued by the Board of Trustees of the
Village of Albion. Operating permits are issued and valid only for a twelve-month
period, but may be renewed as provided for herein.
Any operating permit for a mobile home park may be revoked when it is
found to be in violation of this chapter.
A. Should the Fire Marshal find that conditions exist which
are in violation of any provision of this chapter, he or she shall give notice,
in writing, to the permittee that, unless such conditions or practices are
corrected within 10 days, the permit will be revoked.
B. If, at the end of 10 days, a further inspection reveals
that the conditions or practices have not been corrected, the Fire Marshal
shall then revoke the permit and give notice of such suspension, in writing,
to the permittee. Upon notice of revocation, the permittee shall cease operation
of the mobile home park.
Mobile home parks operating under a valid operating permit issued prior
to the effective date of this chapter may continue to operate under the terms
of such permit until it expires. Before a renewal permit may be issued, such
parks shall be brought into compliance with the provisions of this chapter,
except where existing conditions are permitted to continue, as specified by
this chapter.
Whenever the Fire Marshal finds that an emergency exists which requires immediate action to protect the public health, he or she may, without notice or hearing, issue an order reciting the existence of such an emergency and requiring that such action be taken as he or she may deem necessary to meet the emergency including the suspension of the permit or license. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, such order shall be effective immediately. Any person to whom such an order is directed shall comply therewith immediately, but, upon petition to the governing body, he or she shall be afforded a hearing as soon as possible. The provisions of §
179-11 shall be applicable to such hearing and the order issued thereafter.
