Senate Bill 1132 Summary

• Modifies payment timing for mobile home relocation expenses by requiring payments to installers or contractors only after valid permits are obtained and installation is complete and inspected by the department, rather than at the time of relocation.

• Increases the maximum reimbursement for compliance costs from the mobile home relocation fund from one thousand dollars to one thousand five hundred dollars for mobile homes relocated between parks.

• Changes notification requirements for age-restricted community conversions from one hundred eighty days to sixty days before implementing a change from age-restricted to all-age community status.

• Clarifies that relocated tenants must use licensed installers or contractors and that relocation fund payments are made upon completion of installation inspection and approval for occupancy rather than upon relocation initiation.

• Maintains existing protections for tenants displaced due to change in use, rent increases exceeding ten percent plus consumer price index, or conversion of age-restricted communities, with eligibility for relocation expenses up to five thousand or ten thousand dollars depending on mobile home type.
