Florida Statutes § 723.0611 establishes the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation, a state-created entity governed by a six-member board of directors drawn equally from representatives of mobile home owners and the manufactured housing industry. The corporation is treated as a state agency for liability purposes under Florida law, and its board meetings are subject to Florida's open-meetings requirements. The corporation is empowered to adopt operating rules, establish grievance procedures for payment applicants, and even borrow from private lenders to fund mobile home relocation programs.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Fla. Stat. § 723.0611, park owners interact with the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation as part of the broader relocation-payment framework established in the surrounding statutes. Operators in the manufactured housing industry should be aware that the largest nonprofit association representing their sector nominates three of the six board members who oversee the corporation's administration. Notably, any party who receives compensation from the corporation or a park owner under the related relocation provisions generally cannot bring a separate legal claim against either the corporation or the park owner for matters arising from those same obligations.

Fla. Stat. § 723.0611 creates the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation partly to represent the interests of mobile home owners, with three of its six board seats nominated by the largest nonprofit association representing mobile home owners in the state. Mobile home residents who may be eligible for relocation payments should know that the corporation is required to establish grievance procedures so that applicants can have payment disputes reviewed by an impartial body. Tenants seeking to understand their rights under this framework may benefit from contacting a tenant-rights organization or the Division of Florida Condominiums, Timeshares, and Mobile Homes for guidance on the corporation's processes.
