Existing law, the Mobilehome Parks Act, establishes requirements for the construction, maintenance, occupancy, use, and design of mobilehome parks. Existing law requires the Department of Housing and Community Development to enforce the act, unless a city, county, or city and county has assumed responsibility for enforcement. A violation of these provisions is a misdemeanor.
Existing law requires an enforcement agency to enter and inspect mobilehome parks to ensure enforcement of the act, as specified. Existing law requires an enforcement agency in developing its mobilehome park maintenance inspection program to inspect the mobilehome parks that the enforcement agency determines have complaints that have been made to the enforcement agency regarding serious health and safety violations in the park. Existing law requires enforcement agencies, not less than 30 days before an inspection, to provide individual written notice of the inspection to the registered owners of the manufactured homes or mobilehomes, the occupants thereof, and the owner or operator of the mobilehome park, as specified. Existing law repeals these provisions on January 1, 2025.
This bill would extend that repeal date to January 1, 2030.
Existing law requires an enforcement agency to issue a notice to correct a violation to specified parties depending on the violation and provides for procedures for owners or operators to dispute and appeal a notice of violation, as specified. Existing law repeals these notice provisions on January 1, 2025.
This bill would extend that repeal date to January 1, 2030.
Existing law requires the department to develop a list of local agencies that have home rehabilitation or repair programs for which registered owners or occupants of manufactured homes and mobilehomes residing in mobilehome parks may be eligible. Existing law requires the enforcement agency to provide that list to a registered owner or occupant who receives a notice of violation and who resides in those jurisdictions that have rehabilitation or repair programs for which they may be eligible.
Existing law authorizes the department, pursuant to the Manufactured Housing Opportunity and Revitalization (MORE) Program, to make loans or grants, as applicable, to resident organizations, individual low-income residents of mobilehome parks, qualified nonprofit housing sponsors, and local public entities for specified purposes, including financing mobilehome park acquisition, conversion, rehabilitation, reconstruction, and replacement.
This bill would require the department to include, in the list provided with a notice of violation, local recipients of loans from the MORE program.
The Mobilehome Parks Act imposes prescribed fees, including, among others, a fee of $4 per lot to be used exclusively for the inspection of mobilehome parks and mobilehomes to determine compliance with the act. Existing law repeals the $4 fee per lot on January 1, 2025.
This bill would extend that repeal date to January 1, 2030.
This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 18420 of the Health and Safety Code proposed by SB 1108 to be operative only if this bill and SB 1108 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
Because this bill would extend the application of a crime under the Mobilehome Parks Act, it would impose a state-mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
