Countryside Title 3 Ch. 8 Mobile Home Parks (Landlord and Tenant Regulations) § 3-8-16-9
NOTICE REQUIRED BY LAW
Operative Text
The following notice shall be printed verbatim in a clear and conspicuous manner in each lease or rental agreement of a mobile home or lot: IMPORTANT NOTICE REQUIRED BY LAW The rules set forth below govern the terms of your lease of occupancy arrangement with this mobile home park. The law requires all of these rules and regulations to be fair and reasonable, and if not, such rules and regulations cannot be enforced against you. You may continue to reside in the park as long as you pay your rent and abide by the rules and regulations of the park. You may only be evicted for nonpayment of rent, violation of laws, or for violation of the rules and regulations of the park and the terms of the lease. If this park requires you to deal exclusively with a certain fuel dealer or other merchant for goods or services in connection with the use or occupancy of your mobile home or on your mobile home lot, the price you pay for such goods or services may not be more than the prevailing price in this locality for similar goods and services. You may not be evicted for reporting any violations of law or health and building codes to boards of health, building commissioners, the department of the Attorney General or any other appropriate government agency. (1970 Code § 8-38.55)
Countryside Title 3 Ch. 8 Mobile Home Parks § 3-8-16-9 mandates that every mobile home or lot lease include a specific, verbatim notice informing residents of their core legal protections. The notice covers key rights: that park rules must be fair and reasonable to be enforceable, that residents can only be evicted for defined reasons, that exclusive-dealer pricing cannot exceed local prevailing rates, and that residents cannot be evicted for reporting legal or code violations to government agencies. This provision essentially compiles several tenant protections into a single required disclosure that must appear clearly in every lease agreement.

Under Countryside Title 3 Ch. 8 Mobile Home Parks § 3-8-16-9, compliant mobile home park operators include the full, verbatim statutory notice in a clear and conspicuous manner in every lease or rental agreement they issue. Operators generally review their lease templates to confirm the notice appears exactly as required and is not buried in fine print or otherwise obscured. Because the provision also incorporates substantive rules—such as the fair-and-reasonable standard for park rules and restrictions on exclusive-dealer pricing—operators typically ensure their park rules and any vendor arrangements align with those underlying requirements as well.

Countryside Title 3 Ch. 8 Mobile Home Parks § 3-8-16-9 entitles you as a mobile home park resident to receive a specific written notice in your lease outlining several important protections, including the right to remain in the park as long as rent is paid and rules are followed, protection from eviction for reporting code or law violations, and a cap on exclusive-dealer pricing at local prevailing rates. If this notice is absent from your lease, or if the park's rules appear to be enforced in ways that conflict with the protections described in § 3-8-16-9, those may be relevant facts in any dispute over eviction or rule enforcement. Tenant-rights organizations, local housing agencies, or the Attorney General's office—each of which is referenced in the notice itself—are among the resources available to residents seeking to understand how these protections apply to their situation.
