An Act amending Title 68 (Real and Personal Property) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, providing for manufactured homes; consolidating the Manufactured Home Community Rights Act; establishing the Office of Manufactured Home Ombudsman, the position of Manufactured Home Ombudsman, the Manufactured Home Hearing Board and the Manufactured Home Restricted Account; imposing duties on the Department of Community and Economic Development; and making a repeal.
HB 2098 establishes a new Office of Manufactured Home Ombudsman to help residents resolve disputes with community operators. It creates a Manufactured Home Hearing Board to handle formal disputes (like eviction cases) and sets up a Restricted Account for program funding. The bill consolidates existing manufactured home community laws under a single chapter and requires the Department of Community and Economic Development to oversee implementation. These changes apply to all Pennsylvania manufactured home communities - defined as sites with three or more homes for residential use - directly affecting residents, operators, and community owners.
