Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Mobile Home Park Act. Provides that the funds and fines received under the Act shall be deposited into the Facility Licensing Fund and shall be used for the enforcement of the Act. Provides that the Department of Public Health may assess administrative fines against a person who operates a mobile home park in violation of the Act or its rules. Provides that the Department must provide written notification of the violations and allow a minimum of 10 days for correction before imposing the administrative fine. Effective immediately.

 Fiscal Note (Department of Public Health)
 The Department does not intend to hire additional staff as a result of the proposed amendments that would specify that all fees collected be deposited into the Facility Licensing Fund. This would provide better assurance that the Department can continue to conduct the minimum of one inspection per year of the manufactured home communities. In fiscal year 2002, the Department received $243,376 in annual license fees and plan review fees. The proposed legislation would allow the Department to assess administrative fines by rule. Without knowing the actual dollar amount of the fees, it is estimated that at least $7,000 would be collected annually, for an annual revenue of $250,000. The expense of administering the program in FY02 was $273,230 which was paid entirely from the general revenue fund.
