Community workshops
for manufactured home owners open.
13 June 2023 Dear Members Please see below an invitation to home owners to attend and participate in one of seven consultation workshops that the Department of Housing are organizing in relation to the recently published Consultation Regulatory Impact Statement on site rent increases and sale of home (C-RIS). Some members may have received this invite already directly from the Department. It has been sent to those who said they wanted to be consulted further as part of their response to the Issue Paper last year. These facilitated workshop sessions are an opportunity for homeowners to have further input into the shaping of reforms to the Manufactured Homes Act in addition to completing the Department’s feedback form or via a written submission. QMHOA encourages all interested members to register your interest in taking part in the workshop in their region. We particularly call out to our Association and HOC members to try to ensure that their park is represented.
