Mobilehomes: rent control: government charges.

The Mobilehome Residency Law governs tenancies in mobilehome parks, and imposes various duties on the owners of mobilehome parks and the agents and representatives authorized to act on behalf of the owners. Existing law requires a local agency of any city that administers an ordinance, rule, regulation, or initiative measure for rent control purposes to permit the management of a mobilehome park to separately charge a homeowner for certain fees imposed by specified public entities on the space rented by the homeowner, except as provided. This bill would additionally require a local agency described above to permit the management to separately charge a homeowner for a pro rata amount, as specified, of certain fees, assessments, or other charges imposed by governmental entities, on or after January 1, 2013, and any future increases of those fees, assessments, or other charges. The bill would provide that nothing in these provisions requires the management to refund, reduce, or otherwise change any fees or charges billed to a homeowner as of December 31, 2012.
