Redefines "resident" as a person who rents a site and owns the mobile/manufactured home on it, regardless of whether they live there, and "occupant" as someone who lives in the home with the owner's and operator's consent
-
Requires community owners/operators to provide at least 90 days' written notice to all known residents and occupants before permanently retiring a community or site from the rental housing market
-
Allows operators to hold residents or occupants on a month-to-month lease if they fail to sign and return a lease or lease renewal
-
Adds new grounds for tenancy termination: failing to submit a signed lease to the operator, failing to meet nondiscriminatory application criteria, and violating community rules prohibiting ownership of more than one home in the community
-
Excludes from these protections persons who rent a mobile/manufactured home from a resident or operator when the home's owner does not also live there; such renters fall under standard landlord-tenant law (Chapter 704)
