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

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.
