If you allow your land in the East Cambridgeshire District to be used as a caravan site, you are required to be licensed by East Cambridgeshire District Council. Conditions may be attached to your licence.

Licence conditions may:

restrict when caravans can be on the site for human habitation
restrict the number of caravans that can be on the site at any one time
control the types of caravans on the site
control the positioning of the caravans
regulate the use of other structures and vehicles including tents
ensure steps are taken to enhance the land, including planting/replanting of bushes and trees
impose fire safety and fire fighting controls
ensure that sanitary and other facilities, services and equipment are supplied and maintained.

You must be entitled to use the land as a caravan site. Licences will not be issued to applicants who have had a site licence revoked within three years of the current application.

It is in the public interest that East Cambridgeshire District Council must process your application before it can be authorised.
