Who is responsible for the maintenance of a manufactured home park?

The owner or operator of the park is responsible for the maintenance of a manufactured home park. This responsibility typically includes ensuring that common areas, amenities, and infrastructure like roads, utilities, and waste management systems are properly maintained. The owner or operator has the obligation to provide a safe and habitable environment for the residents.

While the local government may set regulations and enforce codes, it is primarily the park owner or operator who manages the day-to-day maintenance and operations. Residents of the park generally have responsibility for the upkeep of their individual homes and their immediate lot areas, but not for the broader park environment. Additionally, the manufacturer of the homes is responsible for the quality and safety of the homes at the time of sale, but they do not have ongoing responsibilities for the maintenance of the park itself. This clarification helps highlight the specific roles and responsibilities within a manufactured home park context.
