(A) Whenever, after inspection of any mobile home park, it is determined by the Borough Council that conditions or practices exist which are in violation of any provision of this chapter, the Borough Secretary shall give notice in writing to the person to whom an occupancy permit for a mobile home park was issued, advising such person that unless such conditions or practices are corrected within a reasonable period of time specified within the notice, the permit to operate a mobile home park in the borough will be suspended. At the end of the specified period of time, the mobile home park will be reinspected by the Borough Council and if the conditions or practices in violation of the chapter have not been corrected, the Borough Council shall suspend the occupancy permit and give notice in writing of such suspension to the person to whom the permit was issued.
(B) The written notice advising that conditions or practices exist which are in violation of this chapter and that these conditions or practices may result in the suspension of an occupancy permit for a mobile home park shall:
(1) Be in writing;
(2) Include a statement of the reasons for its issuance;
(3) Allow a reasonable time for the performance of any act it requires;
(4) Contain an outline of remedial action which, if taken, will effect compliance with the provisions of the chapter; and
(5) Be served upon the person to whom an occupancy permit for a mobile home park was issued.
(C) Any person affected by any notice, which has been issued in connection with the enforcement of any provision of this chapter, or of any regulation adopted pursuant thereto, may request and shall be granted a hearing on the matter before the Borough Council, provided that such person shall file with the Borough Secretary a written petition requesting such hearing and setting forth a brief statement of the grounds for the request for the hearing within ten days after the notice was served.
(D) Upon receipt of such petition, the Borough Council shall set a place and time for the hearing and shall give the petitioner written notice thereof. At the hearing, the petitioner will be given an opportunity to show why the notice, which was issued, should be modified or withdrawn. The hearing shall be held not later than ten days after the day on which the petition was filed. Upon written application by the petitioner, the Borough Council may waive this ten day requirement when in its judgment the petitioner has submitted sufficient reasons for such a postponement.
(E) After the hearing has been held, the Borough Council shall make findings as to the compliance with the provisions of this chapter and shall issue an order in writing sustaining, modifying or withdrawing the notice provided for in division (A) above. Upon failure to comply with the conditions of the sustained or modified notice, the Borough Council shall suspend the occupancy permit for the mobile home park in question and give notice in writing of such suspension to the person to whom the permit was issued.
(F) Any person aggrieved by the decision of the Borough Council may seek relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, as provided by the laws of the commonwealth.
