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 issuance of the writ 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 subdivisions that require park owners to include specific notices in eviction summons, informing residents of their rights regarding the sale of their homes and the return of any surplus funds after settling outstanding debts. It stipulates that if a park owner acquires and sells a resident's home, the proceeds must first cover any debts owed by the resident, with any remaining surplus returned to the former resident within 30 days of providing contact information. The bill also repeals the previous subdivision that allowed for conditional writs of recovery, which had different terms for residents regarding the sale of their homes.
