Manufactured home park infrastructure grants and loans funding provided, report required, and money appropriated.

HF 1417 provides $15 million annually in state funding for infrastructure improvements in manufactured home parks across Minnesota, starting in fiscal year 2026. The bill directs the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency to offer grants and loans to park owners (including private, cooperative, and municipal operators) for essential infrastructure like water, sewer, and roads. Park owners must apply for these funds under existing law (Minnesota Statutes § 462A.2035), with the agency required to report annually by January 15 on fund usage, including breakdowns by ownership type, average grant/loan amounts, and loan terms. This funding aims to address aging infrastructure in manufactured home communities without altering eligibility or creating new requirements for park residents.
