The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5725, aims to amend chapter 412 of the general statutes concerning rent increases in mobile manufactured home parks. The bill mandates that park owners must provide written notification to residents regarding any rent increase. Additionally, it empowers a majority of affected residents to file a written petition to dispute the rent increase, which would lead to the appointment of a mediator to facilitate a resolution.

If mediation fails, the bill allows the majority of affected residents to escalate the matter by filing a complaint in the appropriate superior court. This legislative change is designed to prevent excessive rent increases and provide a structured process for residents to challenge such increases, thereby enhancing tenant rights within mobile manufactured home parks.
