Grover Beach moves to regulate mobile-home park conversions

Like many areas in OR, WA and CA, Grover City Beach is making a mobile home park conversion more difficult.
“To obtain a conversion permit, a park owner would have to distribute a questionnaire to residents and hire a relocation specialist to help prepare a conversion impact report and help residents find alternate housing.
The park owner would have to hold an informational meeting for park residents, and the Planning Commission would subsequently hold a public hearing on the completed impact report.
If the report is approved by the commission, the owner could have to mitigate the impacts by paying for relocating residents’ mobile homes, paying residents for their coaches or paying the cost of tenancy in a comparable park or other housing or the purchase of a home.
Residents also would be given right of first refusal to move into any housing that replaces the mobile-home park.”
