In areas external to an approved mobile home park, mobile homes shall be used or parked only as provided in Chapter 175, Zoning, and as set forth below.
A. 
The Board of Health may grant a permit for a mobile home to be used and parked on private property as a residence. Such property shall be considered to include occupied dwelling lots. The permit shall be granted for a period not to exceed 30 days in any one year. The Board of Health may extend the permit for an additional thirty-day period if requested to do so. Water supply and sewage disposal facilities for such a mobile home must be approved by the Board of Health.
B. 
The Board of Health may grant a permit for a mobile home to be parked and used for a residence while a house is being constructed on the same premises. Such a permit shall be valid for one year, but it may be extended by the Board of Health for one year additional if the Board is satisfied that construction is being carried forth in good faith. If the construction ceases to be carried forth in good faith, the Board shall revoke the permit. The sewage facilities to be provided for such a mobile home shall be the same as the facilities required by the Board of Health for a dwelling.
C. 
An unoccupied and unused mobile home may be parked on private property.
The maximum number of outstanding mobile home park licenses issued under Chapter 140 of the General Laws shall not at any time exceed the number of said licenses issued by the Board of Health, and in conformity with the applicable Zoning Bylaws as of December 11, 1972.
