As used in this chapter, the following terms shall have the meanings
indicated:
CAMPSITES or TRAILER CAMPS
Any lot or plot of ground used for the temporary or permanent storage,
parking or location of one or more trailers for a period of more than six
hours, and which places are used as a business operated for profit.
TRAILER
Any vehicle used or constructed to be used as a conveyance upon public
streets, whether self-propelled or otherwise, and so designed as to permit
the occupancy thereof as a dwelling or sleeping place; and non-self-propelled
vehicles of any kind or character or intended to be moved under fuel power.
This shall also include vehicles known as "recreational vehicles," "rec-vees,"
"motor homes," "caravans" or "trailers."
The term for such license shall extend from May 1 each year to April
30 of the following year.
Applications for annual renewal of license shall be made by the holders
of such licenses at least 30 days prior to the expiration of each such license
and shall contain the same information as required for the original application
for such license.
The holder of the trailer camp or campsite license shall be responsible for securing a trailer parking license for each trailer parked in the campsite for a period in excess of six hours, for the payment of the fee imposed for the issuance of such license as provided for in §
250-6, and the penalties provided by this section upon failure to procure such license.
No license granted pursuant to the provisions of this section shall
be transferable.
It shall be unlawful for any person owning or operating a trailer located
in a trailer camp or campsite or on the premises of the owner of the trailer
or on leased ground to remove or cause to have removed the wheels or any similar
devices from such trailer, or to otherwise permanently fix it to the ground
in a manner that would prevent the ready removal of such trailer, without
first obtaining a permit to do so from the Building Inspector. Any alteration
to any trailer as above set forth shall be construed as removing it from the
requirements of this chapter and converting it into a dwelling, and it shall
thereupon be subject to the requirements of the Uniform Construction Code.
Any person who shall violate any terms or provisions of this section, in addition to the penalties set forth in Chapter
