(A) Intent. It shall be unlawful for any person to operate any mobile home park within the limits of the city unless he holds a valid license issued annually by the City Council in the name of such person for the specific mobile home park. All applications for licenses shall be made to the City Council. The City Council shall issue a license for a fee determined and reviewed from time to time by the City Council upon compliance by the applicant with provisions of this title.
(B) License transfer. Every person holding a license shall give notice in writing to the Building Inspector within 72 hours after having sold, transferred, given away, or otherwise disposed of interest in or control of any mobile home park. Such notice shall be made to the Building Inspector to include the name and address of the person succeeding to the ownership or control of such mobile home park. Upon application in writing for transfer of the permit, the permit shall be transferred without additional fee.
(C) Application.
(1) Application for the original licenses shall be in writing, signed by the applicant, accompanied by an affidavit of the applicant as to the truth of the application and shall contain: The applicant's name and address; the location and legal description of the mobile home park; and a site plan of the mobile home park, showing all mobile home lots, structures, roads, walkways, and other facilities.
(2) Applications shall be reviewed by the City Planning Commission which shall be satisfied that both site and plan conform with overall zoning and development plans and objectives of the city.
(3) Applications for renewals of licenses shall be made in writing by the holders of the licenses, shall be accompanied by such fees as the City Council may determine, and shall contain any change in the information submitted since the original license was issued or the latest renewal granted.
(D) Suspension or revocation. Whenever, upon inspection of any mobile home park, the Building Inspector finds that conditions or practices exist which are in violation of any provision of this title, the Building Inspector shall give notice in writing to the person to whom the license was issued that conditions or practices shall be corrected within a 30-day period of time specified in the notice by the Building Inspector. At the end of such period of time the Building Inspector shall re-inspect such mobile home park, and if such conditions or practices have not been corrected, the City Council and the City Clerk will give notice in writing of suspension of license to the person to whom the license is issued. Upon receipt of such notice of suspension, such person shall cease operation of such mobile home park.
(E) Extensions. If work to correct conditions or practices in violation of this title cannot be completed in the 30-day period, extensions may be granted by the Building Inspector if reasons of hardship do prevail and can be verified. The Building Inspector shall notify the City Council of all extensions granted.
(F) Hearing. Any person affected by any notice which has been issued in connection with the enforcement of any provision of this title may request and shall be granted a hearing of the same before the City Council.
