HB 1902 -- Manufactured Housing

Sponsor:  Hollingsworth

This bill makes several changes to manufactured housing
regulations.  The bill:

(1)  Applies current regulations to new manufactured homes or
modular units or used modular units used for educational
purposes.  Current law applies to manufactured homes or modular
units;

(2)  Provides a 90-day time period after receiving written
notice from the Public Service Commission to correct a code
violation.  Current law makes it a misdemeanor to fail to
correct a code violation;

(3)  Requires manufacturers or dealers of manufactured homes or
modular units selling in Missouri to register each location with
the commission.  Current law simply requires registration with
the commission;

(4)  Increases the initial registration fee from $50 to $200;

(5)  Removes a reference to a non-existent section; and

(6)  Increases the registration renewal fee from $250 to $750
for manufacturers and from $50 to $200 for dealers.
