Liens; manufactured home; agreement; effective date.

Maddy summaryHB 1548 creates a legal claim (lien) for property owners who host manufactured homes on their land. If the manufactured home owner does not exercise control over their home for 30 consecutive days, the property owner may claim the fair rental value of the home as a lien. This lien can be enforced using standard procedures for property liens under Oklahoma law. The bill takes effect on November 1, 2025, and applies only when no separate agreement exists between the parties.

Primary HB 1552

In committee · Oklahoma House · Lead sponsor

Agriculture; burn bans; declaring extreme fire danger; emergency.

Maddy summaryHB 1552 amends Oklahoma law to clarify burn ban authority during fire emergencies. It gives the Governor power to declare drought emergencies that override county-level burn bans, while allowing county commissioners to declare "extreme fire danger" based on specific conditions like drought, low rainfall forecasts, high temperatures, and fire data. Agricultural producers (farmers/ranchers) can burn cropland or rangeland under a prescribed burn plan, which must include weather details, firebreaks, and notification procedures to local fire departments and landowners. The plan is automatically approved 72 hours after submission, but county bans still apply to non-agricultural burning like campfires or trash.
