Floating Home Marina Landlord Tenant Subcommittee Meeting

The April 17th MH Coalition marina-focused meeting was a success in that we had so many floating home owners and marina owners in attendance that there was standing room only.  Clearly, this was an issue that brought people out to learn and share, and to contribute to creating laws to protect their interest in the floating home communities in Oregon.

During the April 17th meeting, it became clear that there are a number of floating home owners and marina owners who have some issues to work through via legislation.  A Floating Home Marina Landlord-Tenant Subcommittee will be formed from the MH Coalition and this will be the first meeting of the group.  Our first meeting will explore whether we can forge an agreement, in principle, relating to combining the mediation and live-aboard concepts.  The topics specifically include drafting legislation to provide floating home owners with access to a resource and also mediation benefits to help resolve landlord tenant disputes, as well as discussing the role of liveaboards (tenants who live full-time in a boat, not a floating home).

NOTE: Please do bookmark our Events page to make sure you have the most current information about his meeting.  Since this group is brand new, please expect changes in date, venue or topics addressed.  If changes occur, we will update them here.
