In an action by a mobile home park operator to enjoin the application of an ordinance on preemption grounds, dismissal of the action is reversed where the Subdivision Act expressly preempted the ordinance because it states that the “scope of the hearing” for converting a mobile home park to residential ownership “shall be limited to the issue of compliance with this section.”
