This bill modifies eviction proceedings for residents of manufactured home parks in Minnesota by amending section 327C.11 of the Minnesota Statutes. It extends the time allowed for residents to arrange for the removal of their homes from the lot from a maximum of seven days to 90 days after the issuance of a writ of recovery. Additionally, it mandates that residents must be permitted to remain in their homes for ten days following the writ's issuance and provides a 28-day period for them to remove personal property. The bill also requires park owners to notify any parties holding a security interest in the resident's home about the writ within 15 days.

Furthermore, the bill introduces new provisions regarding the sale of a resident's home by the park owner. It stipulates that if a park owner acquires a resident's home and subsequently sells it, the proceeds must first cover any outstanding debts owed by the former resident to the park, followed by any liens on the property. Any remaining surplus must be returned to the former resident within 30 days of them providing contact information. The bill also repeals the previous subdivision 4 of section 327C.11, which allowed for conditional writs of recovery, thereby streamlining the eviction process for manufactured home park residents.
