Bill > SF4909

This bill modifies eviction proceedings for manufactured home park residents by extending the stay of a writ of recovery, which is a court order allowing a landlord to regain possession of a property, from seven days to 90 days, allowing residents more time to arrange to move their homes or sell them within the park, and also grants residents ten days to remain in their homes after the writ is issued and 28 days to remove personal property, while requiring park owners to notify any lienholders of the writ within 15 days. Additionally, the bill mandates that eviction notices must include a specific statement informing residents of their right to any surplus money from the sale of their home after the park owner covers back rent, utility charges, liens, and other lawful costs, provided the resident supplies contact information. Finally, the bill repeals an existing provision regarding conditional writs of recovery, which previously allowed for a longer period to sell a home within the park under specific conditions.
