Bill Title: Amends the Mobile Home Landlord and Tenant Rights Act. Creates a process if a mobile home park owner attempts to change the use of a mobile home park. Requires the park owner to submit a relocation plan for tenants who may be dislocated by the change and also creates a process for the tenants through their homeowners organization to buy the park. Provides that the change of use that is sought may not be approved until the park owner submits a relocation plan. Requires relocation assistance for a mobile home park with more than 10 sites to be paid to each household equaling the amount of rent for the premises, excluding taxes and utilities, paid for the 12 months immediately preceding the date the tenant vacates the premises. Exempts certain sales of the mobile home park to include, but not be limited to, foreclosure, sale to a park owner's family member, or a sale between joint tenants or tenants in common. Provides that if a park owner receives an offer to buy the park, acceptance of that offer shall be conditioned on the purchaser filing an affidavit, recorded in the land records in the county in which the property is located, affirming that: (i) the purchaser will allow continued use of the land as a mobile home park for 5 years after closing; and (ii) rent for a lot on the property will not increase by more than 10% per year for the first 3 years after the sale is complete. Provides that a purchaser's failure to file this affidavit starts a process for the homeowners association of the tenants to have an opportunity to buy the mobile home park under this Act under terms substantially similar to the proposed sale price of the mobile home park. Makes other changes.
