Fla. Stat. § 723.001 et seq. § 723.083
Governmental action affecting removal of mobile home owners.
Operative Text
No agency of municipal, local, county, or state government shall approve any application for rezoning, or take any other official action, which would result in the removal or relocation of mobile home owners residing in a mobile home park without first determining that adequate mobile home parks or other suitable facilities exist for the relocation of the mobile home owners.
Florida Statute § 723.083 restricts government agencies at every level—municipal, local, county, and state—from approving rezonings or taking other official actions that would force mobile home park residents to move unless the agency first confirms that adequate replacement parks or other suitable facilities are available for those residents. The rule applies before any such official action is finalized, making relocation capacity a prerequisite rather than an afterthought. It is designed to protect mobile home park communities from displacement caused by government-initiated land-use changes.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Mobile home park owners and operators should be aware that under Fla. Stat. § 723.083, any government rezoning or official action affecting their park must clear a threshold finding about relocation availability before it can proceed. Compliant park operators generally stay informed about pending land-use proceedings that could affect their property and maintain accurate records of the number of residents who would need relocation options. Understanding this provision can help operators anticipate the procedural steps a government agency must satisfy before any displacement-triggering action becomes effective.

Fla. Stat. § 723.083 gives mobile home park residents a meaningful procedural protection: a government agency cannot approve a rezoning or take another official action that would displace them without first determining that adequate replacement parks or suitable facilities exist. Residents who learn of a pending rezoning or government action affecting their park may raise this statutory requirement as part of public comment processes, administrative hearings, or other proceedings connected to that action. Tenant-rights organizations and legal aid groups familiar with Florida mobile home law can help residents understand how this provision applies to a particular government proceeding.
