Where the applicant is not the owner of the premises, the application shall also be accompanied by an original or photostatic copy of the lease of the premises and a written statement signed by all the owners consenting that the premises be used for the purpose of a mobile home park. C. Each application shall be filed in triplicate with the Town Clerk, who shall thereupon transmit a copy to the County Board of Health, the Town Planning Board and the Building Inspector. Such application shall indicate compliance by the applicant with the minimum park requirements as established by rule or regulation of the County Board of Health. The County Board of Health shall, after investigation, transmit to the Building Inspector its written approval or disapproval thereof or recommendations pertaining thereto. The Planning Board shall, after consideration, transmit to the Building Inspector its written recommendations pertaining thereto. The applicant shall be notified in writing by the Building Inspector of the action taken thereon. D.

E. In the event that the County Board of Health shall fail to approve the application, or in the event the Building Inspector determines that the provisions of this chapter have not been complied with, the Building Inspector shall notify the applicant in writing that the application is denied. The Building Inspector shall further set forth the reasons for the denial. Any applicant who has been refused a permit may apply to the Town Board therefor. It shall be the applicant's responsibility to notify the Town Clerk to have the application added to the agenda for the next regular Town Board meeting. The applicant shall have the opportunity to present facts and arguments in support of his or her application. The Town Board shall issue a decision in writing, which shall be mailed to the applicant. F. Fees. The applicant for a mobile home park permit shall pay to the Town Clerk a fee as set from time to time by resolution of the Town Board. G. Inspections. The County Board of Health and any other duly authorized agent or employee of the Town of Saugerties shall have the right at any reasonable time to enter any mobile home park or other premises used for the parking or location of a mobile home and shall have the right at all times to inspect all parts of said premises, and to inspect the records required to be kept in any mobile home park. H. If any mobile home park is not being maintained in a clean and sanitary condition or is not being conducted in accordance with the provisions of this chapter, the Building Inspector shall serve an order in writing upon the holder of the permit or the person in charge of said park, directing that the conditions therein specified be remedied within 10 days after date of service of such order. If such conditions are not corrected after the expiration of said ten-day period, the Building Inspector may cause a notice in writing to be served upon the holder of said permit or the person in charge of such mobile home park, requiring the holder of the permit to appear before the Town Board of the Town of Saugerties at a time to be specified in such notice and show cause why such mobile home park permit should not be revoked. The Town Board may, after the hearing at which testimony of witnesses may be taken and the holder of the permit shall be heard, revoke such permit if said Town Board shall find that said park is not being maintained in a clean and sanitary condition or if it finds that any provisions of this chapter have been violated or for other sufficient cause. Upon the revocation of such permit, the premises shall forthwith cease to be used for the purposes of a mobile home park, and all mobile homes shall forthwith be removed therefrom. I. Application for the renewal of any mobile home park permit issued pursuant to this chapter, must be filed with the Building Inspector on or before the 1st day of December next preceding the expiration of said permit. The application for renewal shall be in writing and signed by the applicant and shall contain the same information as required by § 163-7 of this chapter in the case of original application for permits, except that such renewal application need not be accompanied by a plan of the mobile home park unless some change in the plan or layout of the park is contemplated by the applicant, nor is it necessary that the said renewal application be accompanied by the lease of the premises unless a new lease of the premises has been entered into subsequent to the time of filing the previous application, in which event the original photostatic copy of the new lease shall be attached to the application for a renewal, nor shall it be necessary to attach to such application for renewal the written consent of the owners of the premises that the same may be used for the purpose of a mobile home park unless there shall have been a change in the ownership since the filing of the previous application, in which event such written statement signed by all of the new owners of the premises must accompany the application for a renewal of the permit. Upon the approval of said application for a renewal of the permit by the Building Inspector, the Building Inspector shall issue a renewal permit, which shall become effective upon the expiration of the prior permit and continue in force for the term specified therein but in no event longer than for a period of one year. The applicant shall at the time of issuance of such renewal permit pay to the Town Clerk the fee provided in § 163-7F of this chapter covering the issuance of a renewed mobile home park permit. J. This chapter shall apply to all existing mobile home parks in the Town of Saugerties, except that mobile home parks in existence on the effective date of this chapter shall have one year to comply therewith.
