Title of bill
An act to amend the real property law, in relation to requiring a manufactured home park owner or operator to give every manufactured home resident a copy of their resident's bill of rights
Purpose
The bill would require a manufactured home park owner or operator to give every manufactured home tenant a copy of the resident's bill of rights.
Summary of provisions
Section 1 amends section 233 of the real property law to require manufactured home park owners or operators to offer residents prior to occupancy a copy of the bill of rights published by the Division of Housing and Community Renewal and to post such bill of rights in a conspicuous place.
Section 2 is the effective date
Justification
Current law requires manufactured home park owners and operators to give residents a copy of the lease and park rules. The law does not now require the dissemination of the resident's bill of rights developed by the Division of Housing and Community Renewal. This bill requires park owners and operators to give residents a copy of this bill of rights. The bill of rights sets out the provisions of the section 233 of the Real Property Law. Such dissemination will advise and educate residents about their rights as manufactured home owners.
