Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Mobile Home Park Act. Provides that the agreement required in the case of a mobile home park that does not have a private water supply system and hydrants must be signed and dated by the owner of the mobile home park or his or her representative and by the local fire chief or his or her representative and must be submitted with each application for an original license or license renewal application under the Act. Provides that a mobile home park constructed after January 1, 1998 must be located in an area protected by a fire department or fire protection district and provided with fire hydrants within 500 feet of any structure in the mobile home park. Provides that as an alternative to fire hydrants, a holding pond or other source of water of 100,000 gallons or more accessible to the fire department or fire protection district may be used, if the fire department or fire protection district is capable of pumping from the body of water. Provides minimum standards for water main size and for system pressure. Eliminates a provision that a mobile home park constructed before 1998 is not required to install new water supply systems or hydrants for fire safety purposes.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Changes a reference to "representative" to "designee". Provides that certification that an agreement with respect to an adequate and reliable water supply for fire mitigation needs exists shall be signed by the owner of the mobile home park or his or her designee and by the local fire chief or his or her designee and submitted with each application for original licensure or licensure renewal under the Act (instead of providing that a copy of the agreement shall be submitted with each application for an original license or license renewal application required under the Act). Provides that a copy of this agreement shall be on file at the local fire department or fire protection district and posted in public view at the mobile home park site and available for inspection. Deletes amendatory provisions concerning standards for mobile home parks constructed after January 1, 1998. Restores a provision stating that nothing in the Act's fire safety provisions shall be construed to mandate a mobile home park, constructed prior to 1998, to install new water supply systems or hydrants for fire safety purposes.

Senate Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that a copy of the agreement for an adequate and reliable water supply for fire mitigation needs shall be posted at the mobile home park site "by the mobile home park owner or his or her designee".
