Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

6 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 1 costs, 2 mixed.

Relocation help and payments in park closures

Before a mobilehome park can close or change use, the proposer must file an impact report with a replacement and relocation plan. Local officials may require steps to reduce harm and help residents find adequate space in another park. If you own a mobilehome and cannot get adequate housing in another park, the proposer must pay you the in‑place market value based on a state‑certified appraisal. This in‑place payment does not apply when the closure is due to disaster damage, but reporting and mitigation still apply.

Mortgage help during wildfire emergencies

When the state declares a wildfire emergency, the financial regulator works with mortgage lenders and servicers to promote forbearance, foreclosure prevention, and loss‑mitigation. This applies if your household income drops or your expenses rise because of the wildfire. The agency coordinates and monitors so affected borrowers can access these options during the emergency.

No rent and fast refunds in evacuations

During a mandatory disaster evacuation, you do not owe rent for the time you cannot live in your unit or mobilehome space. If you prepaid rent, your landlord or park must refund that amount within 10 calendar days after the order is lifted, or credit it to next month’s rent. If your tenancy ends because the unit, park, or space was damaged or destroyed by a disaster, any advance rent covering time after the end date must be refunded within 21 days. Refunds go to your postal or email address, or to the unit’s address if you gave no contact.

Stronger oversight of disaster park closures

If a local government decision causes a park to close or change use, the agency is treated as the proposer. It must prepare the impact report and take steps to reduce harm to residents. For disaster‑related closures, the impact report must include a state housing department inspection that documents park conditions. These rules apply in charter cities too.

Safer rentals after disasters, with return rights

Landlords must remove disaster debris and fix hazards like mold, smoke residue, ash, asbestos, and water damage so units are safe. A unit with disaster debris is presumed untenantable until a local public health official says the debris is not toxic. Landlords must follow official cleaning rules, act in a reasonable time, give you written notice when cleanup is done, and share testing or reports. Your tenancy continues, and you can return at the same rent you paid before the disaster when it is safe and practical. The law does not require landlords to rebuild destroyed units.

Fees on mobilehome park closure proposers

Local governments may charge reasonable fees to the person or company proposing a park conversion or closure. The fees cover the agency’s costs to implement impact reports and related rules. Expect administrative fees as part of your application.
