• (a) A municipality may impose more restrictive requirements on mobile home parks and mobile
  homes than are contained in this chapter to the extent it is authorized to do so under
  other legislation. (b) Other applicable laws and rules that are more restrictive than this chapter shall
  prevail. (c) To the extent that they are consistent with this chapter, the provisions of 9 V.S.A.
  chapter 137 (residential rental agreements) and the provisions of 12 V.S.A. chapter
  169, subchapter 3 (eviction) shall apply to the occupancy and rental of a mobile home,
  and the provisions of 12 V.S.A. chapter 169, subchapter 3 (eviction) shall apply to
  the rental of a mobile home lot, except the rental of a mobile home lot shall be subject
  to the provisions of 12 V.S.A. chapter 169, relating to payment of rent into court. (d) A mobile home occupied on the basis of a lease-purchase or rent-to-own contract, however
  named, shall be subject to the provisions of 9 V.S.A. § 2602(e). (e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, where a mobile home park is a
  nonconforming use under local zoning regulations, its status regarding conformance
  or nonconformance shall apply to the parcel as a whole and not to any individual mobile
  home lot within the park. The vacancy of any individual mobile home lot shall not
  be considered a discontinuance or abandonment of the nonconforming use. (f) This chapter shall not apply to the rental or use of campsites occupied for vacation
  or recreational purposes by camping units, such as: tents, yurts, tepees, lean-tos,
  camping cabins, and recreational vehicles, including motor homes, folding camping
