| This legislation establishes a process whereby private property owners can have abandoned mobile homes removed from their land. Local governments may elect to provide a qualified "local agent" to make a determination, at the request of a property owner, whether a mobile home is abandoned, derelict or intact. If deemed abandoned, the local government posts a notice, then the property owner notifies the last known mobile home owner (or posts a legal notice if no responsible party can be ascertained), which begins a process whereby the property owner can pay for the removal of the mobile home. A hearing procedure is provided in magistrate court for aggrieved mobile home owners in this process. Neither the local government nor the local agent shall bear any liability with respect to any lawful actions taken under this law. Action: counties wishing to participate must first appoint a qualified local agent. |

In addition, a dealer would have the option of filing title applications in the county where the dealer is located rather than in the counties where the purchasers reside. |
