Western Manufactured Housing Communities Association (WMA) is a
nonprofit organization created in 1945 for the exclusive purpose
of promoting and protecting the interests of owners, operators
and developers of manufactured home communities in California.
The Mobilehome Residency Protection Program (MRLPP) was enacted
in January 2019. It charges the Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD) to administer the program and begin
billing parkowners $10 per permitted space. Click here to read more on how
the program works and how it will affect your park.
People who purchased a mobilehome or manufactured home but didn’t
receive the necessary title to the property now have a
chance to properly register their homes with the new Fee and Tax
Waiver Program – and avoid paying hundreds or even
thousands of dollars in state and local taxes, fees and
penalties.
Attention WMA Members: WMA needs your help immediately to defeat
the passage of Assembly Bills 2690 by Assemblymember Evan Low and
AB 2895 by Assemblymember Sharon Quirk-Silva.
Under AB 2690 (Low), construction of new manufactured communities
would now be subject to rent control.
Attention WMA Members: WMA needs your help immediately to defeat
the passage of Senate Bill 915 by Senator Connie Leyva and Senate
Bill 999 by Senator Tom Umberg.
California Democrats want to give tenants who’ve lost their jobs
or had wages cut during the coronavirus outbreak a decade to
repay late rent.
The proposal is part of a broader strategy a handful of Senate
Democrats announced Tuesday as a way to keep California afloat in
the recession caused by COVID-19. It complements a separate
proposal in the Assembly that would give mortgage relief for
homeowners struggling with payments and another bill that would
suspend evictions.

A bid by some Los Angeles leaders to enact a blanket ban on
evictions during the novel coronavirus crisis failed on a 6-7
vote on Wednesday, April 22, held toward the end of a nearly
nine-hour meeting in which the council adopted other measures
aimed at providing protections to workers and relief to
Angelenos.
California will look at six factors to determine when to loosen
stay-at-home orders designed to slow the spread of the
coronavirus, Gov. Gavin Newsom said Tuesday.
Newsom’s plan is designed to transition the state from the
current stay-at-home orders that have ground much of the state’s
economy to a halt to a point when there is a vaccine or
widespread immunity to the virus.
Due to the uncertainty of COVID-19 outbreaks and
shelters-in-place throughout the state of California, WMA has
decided to cancel all MCM seminars until 2021. All registrants
for 2020 seminars will receive a full refund via check. We ask
for your patience while we proceed through this process.
We will provide MCM credits through webinars throughout 2020.
Information on webinars will be provided shortly, including
dates, topic and cost.
