1 <br /> Statement ofFPoe cyvfor Qarcline99Mobile Home Park <br /> On March 31, 1990, we issued a pamphlet to each resident of Caroline <br /> Mobile Horne Park. This pamphlet was entitled: A New Policy for the <br /> Improvement and Upgrading of the Image of the Caroline Mobile Home <br /> Park. We urge you to review this policy because it is, in effect, <br /> a blue print to improve the quality of living in our Park for years <br /> to come. <br /> For example, in May of 1991, we were able to complete water <br /> lines from City of Durham water resources. During the same year, <br /> we made significant improvements on our roads. <br /> In the spring of 1992, we made plans to install a sewer line <br /> with connections to the Durham City Sewer system. We hope that <br /> this project will be completed by the fall of 1992. With city <br /> water and sewer, along with more emphasis on mobile home owners' <br /> keeping grass cut, yards and roads clean (without beer cans, bottles, <br /> paper, etc.) ,Caroline Mobile Home Park may be rated "the best in <br /> Durham". <br /> Some of you have asked about our new policy regarding the <br /> selling of your mobile home to another owner and leaving the mobile <br /> home on the lot within the confines of the Caroline Mobile Home Park. <br /> Our new policy , effective July 1st , 1992, for owners who <br /> wish to sell their mobile homes to new prospective owners who <br /> request permission to bey the mobile home and rent the same <br /> lot in our park is as follows: <br /> Used mobile homes, manufactured before July 1, 195, <br /> because of the manner of their construction, assembly <br /> and use of their system, components and appliances <br /> (ncluding heating, plumbing, electrical air conditioning) <br /> like other finished products having concealed vital <br /> parts, may present hazards to the health, life and <br /> safety of persons and to the safety of property, <br /> unless properly maintained over the years. <br /> We want, to prevent the park from dtsintegratint..into=a .slum area <br /> and we want to maintain quality living. <br /> In the sale of used mobile homes, there is also the possibility <br /> of defects, not readily ascertainable when inspected by purchasers. <br /> It is therefore now the policy and purpose of the management of <br /> Caroline Mobile Home Park to provide protection to the public <br /> against these hazards by requiring qualified persons and or <br /> specialized inspectors(with occupational trade licenses) who have <br /> been granted a license to issue a label of compliance. The label <br /> of compliance will certify that such and such a mobile home was, <br /> on the day of inspection,so opened in order that its entire <br /> structure, electrical, heating, plumbing, and air conditioning <br /> systems could be closely observed and inspected. <br /> P.S. If you should have any questions about this policy statement, <br /> please call: 383-1417 <br />
