Prohibiting mobile home park landlords from limiting a tenant's access to communications and video services.

SB 169 prohibits mobile home park landlords in Kansas from restricting tenants' choice of communications or video service providers (such as internet, cable, or broadband). It directly affects mobile home park tenants and landlords by requiring landlords to allow tenants to choose their own service providers, unless restrictions are reasonably necessary for health, safety, or welfare. The bill amends Kansas law to explicitly ban such restrictions in rental agreements, while permitting landlords to set reasonable connection standards that don’t charge more than actual costs. This creates a clear policy change ensuring tenants have unfettered access to service options without landlord interference.
