Relating to: penalties imposed on owners of mobile or manufactured home communities, grants for mobile homes and manufactured homes, and making an appropriation. (FE)

This bill establishes a grant program to help owners of mobile and manufactured home communities meet licensing standards and to assist individual homeowners with repairs and improvements. It creates a new penalty system that allows the Department of Safety and Professional Services to impose a $5,000 forfeiture annually on community owners who fail to comply with reporting or other requirements. The collected penalties are designated to fund the grant program, and unpaid forfeitures create liens on the property until resolved. The legislation defines key terms such as manufactured homes and mobile home communities to clarify who qualifies for assistance and under what rules.
