AI Summary

This bill modifies Arizona's mobile home park regulations by establishing comprehensive education and training requirements for mobile home park landlords and managers. The bill defines an "agent" as any person acting in a managerial capacity in a mobile home park and requires these agents to complete education and training every two years. The training must focus on homeowner and management rights and responsibilities, complaint response, communication, and recent changes to mobile home park laws. The education must cover specific legal provisions related to rental agreements, tenant and landlord obligations, utility charges, and available remedies. The Arizona Department of Housing will allow third-party providers to offer the training, with the department reviewing and approving training curricula every two years. Upon completing the initial training, agents will receive a two-year certification that must be renewed by submitting documentation of continued education. Mobile home parks must post proof of training compliance, and failure to do so can result in civil penalties of $500 initially, with an additional $500 per month, which can be waived if compliance is demonstrated within six months. The bill aims to improve communication, understanding of legal rights, and professional management in mobile home parks by ensuring ongoing education for park managers and owners.
