Caravan Site Licensing
The Council's Private Sector Housing Team is responsible for the licensing of mobile home sites and for ensuring the conditions of the site licence are adhered to.
We have a duty to issue caravan site licences to all caravan sites within the North Hertfordshire district providing that the applicant has valid planning permission. We like to see and encourage good standards at our caravan sites for the pleasure and enjoyment of our community as well as tourists who visit the area.
We respond to complaints about unsatisfactory caravans and caravan sites and we carry out regular programmed inspections of caravan sites to ensure that they are complying with their site licence conditions.
The use of land as a caravan site requires a Caravan Site Licence (but there are some exceptions) and the Council attach conditions to the licence. Site Licence conditions are designed to protect the health, safety and welfare of caravan occupants and covers such issues as fire safety, drainage, distances between caravans and so on.
If you require any further information about caravan site licence conditions or how to apply for a licence, please contact the Private Sector Housing team.
