Thanks to the WMA-sponsored bill AB 391 (Rodriguez) — also known
as the Paper Reduction Bill — mobilehome park residents will have
the option to receive their annual copy of the Mobilehome
Residency Law (MRL) electronically beginning January 1, 2026.
Kick off the new year with an interactive, virtual session. Learn
from industry experts how to comply with and implement newly
signed legislation. Our presenters will discuss new laws
impacting the mobilehome industry, such as AB 456, AB 806, SB
610, SB 748, and many more. Attendees will be able to ask
questions toward the end of the webinar.
WMA hosts a Zoom chat on the first Thursday of each month.
These informal discussions focus on trending, pertinent topics.
Registration is not required for this free event.
