Mobile Home, Lodging, RV Parks, and Recreational Camps
This program includes mobile home parks, lodging and recreational vehicle parks, and recreational camps. The objective of this program is to minimize the risk of injury and illness in this residential environment.
Of primary concern and importance are safe drinking water supply, proper sewage disposal, a safe and disease free swimming pool (where provided), and assurances that the establishment is free from garbage, harmful insects, and rodent infestations.
All of these establishments are licensed annually by the health department. The Hendry County Health Departments provides direct services in the operational aspect of the program through routine inspections, plan reviews, educational programs, and enforcement actions. County health departments’ personnel also investigate environmental health complaints.
