Minn. Stat. § 327 § 327.25
If any applicant for a manufactured home park license desires to operate such manufactured home park only during the months from May 1 to October 1, the applicant shall pay the above mentioned annual license fee. If in the opinion of the state Department of Health the sanitary and facility requirements herein contained are too rigid for the seasonal manufactured home parks, the department may in writing or by rule modify such requirements as circumstances may permit and require.

Plain English

Minnesota Statute § 327.25 addresses manufactured home park operators who wish to run their parks only during the seasonal window of May 1 through October 1. Even for this limited operating period, the full annual license fee still applies. The state Department of Health retains authority to relax certain sanitary and facility standards for these seasonal parks if it determines the standard requirements are overly strict for part-year operations, and any such modifications must be made in writing or by formal rule.

For Property Managers

Under Minn. Stat. § 327.25, operators of seasonal manufactured home parks—those open only between May 1 and October 1—are still responsible for paying the full annual license fee, just as year-round parks are. Compliant seasonal park operators typically ensure their license is secured before opening and remain attentive to any written modifications or rules the Minnesota Department of Health may issue relaxing standard sanitary and facility requirements for seasonal operations. Keeping documentation of any department-issued modifications on file is a practice commonly associated with smooth licensing and inspection processes.

For Tenants

Minn. Stat. § 327.25 establishes that manufactured home parks operating only from May 1 to October 1 are still subject to state licensing requirements, and the Minnesota Department of Health oversees whether the applicable sanitary and facility standards are appropriate for such seasonal parks. Residents of seasonal manufactured home parks retain the right to expect that their park meets whatever standards the Department of Health has established or modified for that category of operation. Tenants who have concerns about conditions in a seasonal park may look into contacting the Minnesota Department of Health directly or reaching out to a tenant-rights organization familiar with manufactured housing regulations.
