CHAPTER 20

MOBILE HOME PARK LANDLORD-TENANT ACT

55-2010. Terminations. (1) Tenancy during the term of a rental agreement may be terminated by the landlord only for one (1) or more of the following reasons:

(a) Substantial or repeated violation of the written rules of the mobile home park. The tenant shall be given written notice to comply. If the tenant does not comply within three (3) days, the tenant may be given notice of a twenty (20) day period in which to vacate. In the case of periodic rather than continuous violation, said notice shall specify that the same violation repeated shall result in the termination.

(b) Nonpayment of rent or other charges specified in the rental agreement. The tenant shall be given written notice. If the tenant does not pay within three (3) days the tenant may be given notice of a twenty (20) day period in which to vacate.

(c) Cessation of the mobile home space rental operation, provided that the landlord gives the tenant not less than one hundred eighty (180) days’ notice in writing prior to the date designated in the notice of termination.

(2) Except where there will be a cessation of the mobile home space rental operation, a landlord shall give the tenant no less than ninety (90) days’ written notice of an intention not to renew the rental agreement. Where there will be a cessation of the mobile home space rental operation, the landlord must provide the tenant with the same notice as required in subsection (1)(c) of this section.

(3) A tenant shall notify the landlord in writing thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of a rental agreement of an intention not to renew the rental agreement.

(4) Any tenant who is a member of the armed forces may, without penalty, terminate a rental agreement with less than thirty (30) days’ notice if he receives reassignment orders which do not allow greater notice.

(5) The tenant may terminate the rental agreement upon thirty (30) days’ written notice whenever a change in the location of the tenant’s employment requires a change in his residence.
