SB 174 Montana Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Providing that recreational vehicles and mobile homes are reviewed as buildings for rent or lease

SB 174 revises Montana laws regarding the review of properties for rent or lease. The bill specifically requires that areas providing multiple spaces for recreational vehicles or mobile homes for rent or lease be considered "subdivisions." This change means such developments will now be subject to the state's subdivision review process, including oversight by local governing bodies. The aim is to apply existing subdivision regulations to these types of rental or lease arrangements.
