ENFORCEMENT.
Operative Text
Subdivision 1. [Repealed, 1993 c 206 s 25] Subd. 2. [Repealed, 1993 c 206 s 25] Subd. 3.Private remedies. Any person injured or threatened with injury by a violation of sections 327.14 to 327.28 or of the rules of the Department of Health applicable to manufactured home parks may bring a private action in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Minnesota Statutes § 327 § 327.24 establishes a private right of action for individuals who are harmed or face the threat of harm due to violations of the manufactured home park standards set out in Minn. Stat. §§ 327.14–327.28 or related Department of Health rules. The provision allows affected individuals to seek relief through the court system without relying solely on government enforcement. Subdivisions 1 and 2 of this section were repealed in 1993, leaving the private remedy provision as the operative enforcement mechanism under this section.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Minn. Stat. § 327 § 327.24, manufactured home park operators should be aware that residents and others affected by conditions in the park are not limited to filing complaints with regulators — they may also pursue civil court actions directly. Operators who maintain compliance with the standards in §§ 327.14–327.28 and applicable Department of Health rules reduce their exposure to private litigation. Keeping records of maintenance, inspections, and rule compliance is a practice generally associated with responsible park management under this framework.

Minn. Stat. § 327 § 327.24, Subd. 3 gives residents of manufactured home parks — and others who are injured or threatened with injury — the ability to bring a private lawsuit in court when violations of §§ 327.14–327.28 or Department of Health rules occur. This means a tenant does not have to wait for a government agency to act before seeking a legal remedy. Tenant-rights organizations and legal aid services familiar with manufactured housing law can help residents understand what options may be available under this provision.
