Operative Text
SPS 326.48 Interruptions of service. (1) Each manufactured home community operator or manufactured home community contractor shall make all reasonable efforts to prevent interruptions of service. When interruptions occur, the manufactured home community operator or manufactured home community contractor shall endeavor to re-establish service with the shortest possible delay consistent with the safety of its employees, the manufactured home community occupants, and the general public. (2) Reasonable notice shall be given to manufactured home community occupants of planned interruptions of service.
Wisconsin Administrative Code § SPS 326.48 establishes that operators and contractors responsible for manufactured home communities must take reasonable steps to avoid service interruptions in the first place. When an interruption does occur, they are required to restore service as quickly as safety allows for workers, residents, and the public. For any planned outage, residents must receive reasonable advance notice before service is cut off.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § SPS 326.48, compliant manufactured home community operators and contractors maintain proactive maintenance practices designed to minimize unplanned service outages. When an unplanned interruption does occur, operators document their restoration efforts and prioritize safety throughout the process. For any scheduled service interruption, operators provide residents with advance notice that is reasonable in timing and method given the nature of the planned work.

Section § SPS 326.48 gives manufactured home community occupants the right to expect that their operator will work to prevent service outages and restore them promptly when they do happen. Residents are also entitled to reasonable advance notice before any planned interruption takes place. Tenants who believe an operator has failed to meet these obligations may consider contacting the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services, reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization, or raising the violation in any relevant housing proceeding.
