BILL NUMBER:S3223A
Title of bill
An act to amend the executive law, in relation to providing for the certification and training of persons employed in the manufacture, sale, installation and repair of modular homes and establishing dispute resolution procedures in the modular home industry
Purpose
Amends Chapter 729 of the Laws of 2005, the Manufactured Housing Advancement Act, to include modular homes.
Summary of provisions
Section 1. Amends the Manufactured Housing Advancement Act of 2005 to include modular homes and provides for certification and training procedures for employees and establishes dispute resolution procedures in the modular home industry.
Section 2. Sets forth the effective date.
Justification
Chapter 729 of the laws of 2005 enacted the Manufactured housing Advancement Act which contained important consumer protections for manufactured home purchasers by requiring that manufacturers, installers, mechanics and retailers be trained and certified. In addition to providing that manufactured homes were installed and serviced in a professional manner, this training ensured that disputes were resolved through a reasonable process. This legislation simply adds modular homes in statute thus affording those same consumer protections in the modular home industry.
