Mobilehome Parks Act.

(1) The Mobilehome Parks Act requires the Department of Housing and Community Development or a city, county, or city and county that assumes responsibility for the enforcement of the act to enter and inspect mobilehome parks with a goal of inspecting at least 5% of the parks each year to ensure enforcement of the act and implementing regulations. Existing law also requires an enforcement agency to issue notice to correct a violation, as specified. Existing law repeals these provisions on January 1, 2012. This bill would extend the repeal of these provisions to January 1, 2019. (2) Existing law requires the department to convene a task force of prescribed membership every 6 months to provide input to the department on the conduct and operation of the mobilehome park maintenance inspection program. Existing law also requires the department to submit a report to the task force semiannually that includes specified elements of the inspection program. This bill would require that the department submit the report in writing and that the report include additional elements of information, as prescribed. (3) The Mobilehome Parks Act imposes prescribed fees, including, among others, a fee of $4 per lot to be used exclusively for the inspection of mobilehome parks and mobilehomes to determine compliance with the Mobilehome Parks Act. Existing law repeals the $4 fee per lot on January 1, 2012. This bill would extend the January 1, 2012, repeal date to January 1, 2019, thereby extending the imposition of the $4 fee per lot until that date.
