Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 2 mixed.

Renters get time but face eviction

For rental agreements made after July 1, 1991, the law sets rules for possession after an agreement ends. Landlords can seek eviction when renters breach the agreement or stay after it ends. After a possession judgment, renters generally get at least seven days to move, and can stay during that period under the rental agreement. In nonpayment cases, renters can stop removal by paying all amounts owed before the hearing or by the move-out date; landlords must act in good faith to accept full payment. A posted warrant alone does not complete an eviction: law enforcement must physically remove occupants. After removal, landlords must provide reasonable access to belongings for 72 hours; property left behind may then be moved or disposed of.

RV park occupants face fast removal

RV park operators can refuse service or access for listed conduct, including unpaid rent, disturbing guests, illegal conduct, or creating a safety hazard. If someone refuses to leave when asked, the operator can have law enforcement supervise removal or seek an arrest; an arrest warrant must be served. Removal or arrest ends the person’s occupancy rights. Operators must use reasonable means to care for property left behind. If property cannot be removed right away, retrieval with an officer can be arranged for a reasonable time, up to 48 hours; after that, the operator can remove it.

RV parks cannot discriminate in access

An RV park cannot deny you accommodations, service, or access because of your race, color, national origin, sex, physical disability, or creed.
