Nothing herein shall repeal, abrogate, annul, or in any way interfere with, any provision of law, or any rules or regulations other than mobile home park regulations. Where this chapter imposes greater restrictions or requirements than one imposed or required by other provisions of law, rules, ordinances, regulations, covenants, or agreements, the provisions of this chapter shall control, but nothing herein shall interfere with, abrogate, and annul any easements, covenants, or deed restrictions greater than those imposed by this chapter.
