This bill provides that if an owner of a mobile home park wants to change the use of a mobile home park and that change of use results in evictions, the owner must give each tenant subject to eviction written notice of intent to evict not less than 12 months before the change of the use of the mobile home park. It also provides that a rental agreement that binds a tenant to arbitration in lieu of a civil trial and any provision that requires a tenant to agree to a possessory lien is unenforceable and in violation of the Maine Unfair Trade Practices Act.
