Provides that a warrant for eviction from a manufactured home park shall give fourteen days notice, if such person rents a manufactured home in a manufactured home park from a manufactured home park owner or operator.
This bill amends the Real Property Law to change the notice period required when a warrant of eviction is executed against a person who rents a manufactured home in a manufactured home park from the park owner or operator. Under current law, the officer executing the warrant must give 72 hours’ written notice before eviction; the bill would extend that notice period to 14 days. The warrant would still be executed only between sunrise and sunset.
The measure is narrowly focused on eviction procedure in manufactured home parks and does not alter the underlying grounds for eviction or the landlord-tenant relationship more broadly. Its practical effect would be to give affected residents more time to prepare for displacement, secure alternative housing, or address the eviction before removal occurs. The bill would amend section 233 of the Real Property Law and would take effect immediately if enacted.
The bill would change state eviction procedure for a specific class of tenants—people who rent manufactured homes in manufactured home parks—by lengthening the mandatory written notice period from 72 hours to 14 days before a warrant of eviction may be executed. This would impose a new procedural requirement on officers carrying out eviction warrants and on manufactured home park owners or operators seeking dispossession, while leaving the substantive eviction standards otherwise unchanged. The bill would amend the Real Property Law, section 233, subdivision d, paragraph 4.
No committee transcript or vote record is provided, so there is no direct evidence of debate or recorded support/opposition. Based on the bill text and caption, the measure appears to be tenant-protective and aimed at giving manufactured home residents additional time before eviction, suggesting a consumer- and housing-stability-oriented policy approach.
The main policy tension is between providing greater notice and stability for manufactured home residents and preserving the ability of park owners or operators to enforce eviction warrants promptly. Supporters would likely emphasize the vulnerability of manufactured home tenants and the need for more time to relocate or respond, while opponents may argue that a 14-day delay could slow enforcement and increase burdens on property owners and officers. Because no transcripts or votes are included, specific named positions or objections are not available.
