2020 House Bill 6005

Revise mobile home park operator license rules and sanctions

Introduced in the House

July 23, 2020

Introduced

To revise details of the process and standards for getting the license required to operate a mobile home park. Among other things the bill would create a new label and status for a park that is not “in substantial compliance” with state rules, calling it a “distressed park.” The bill would require the owner post a bond and have a hearing to determine how long the park has been out of compliance, whether the owner or operator was notified and had sufficient opportunity to bring it into compliance, whether there is any imminent threat to the health or safety or if the park is likely to be abandoned by the owner or operator.
