Last week the Manufactured Housing Landlord Tenant Coalition held it's final meeting. Some changes were made to the In Park Sales Conflict" issue but the other three issues remained substantially unchanged from our meeting in January.
The MHCO Board of Directors has reviewed the proposed coalition bill and voted unanimously to support the proposed legislation. Phil Querin is working on some last minute adjustments to the "In Park Sales" section of the proposal. The coalition proposal will go to Legislative Counsel early this week to be drafted into a House Bill.
MHCO has been working on bi-partisan support for the proposal. There will be Democratic and Republican sponsors. All this should make it easier to pass the proposal this spring. In all likelihood the public hearing for this bill will be in March.
Here is a brief summary of the proposed legislation:
1. Unpaid Taxes on Abandoned Homes
This issue was MHCO's top legislative priority for the 2015 Legislative Session. We are very happy with the agreement that we were able to reach which nearly eliminates all unpaid taxes on an abandoned home.
