Roseville, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 1202 § 1202.08
Payment of relocation costs to displaced renters
Operative Text
After service of the closure statement by the park owner and upon submittal by the displaced renter of a contract or other verification of relocation expenses, the park owner shall pay to the displaced renter reasonable costs of relocating. Reasonable relocation costs shall include: (1) The actual expenses incurred in moving the displaced renter's personal property. (2) The cost of insurance for the replacement value of the property being moved. (3) The difference between new lot rent and closed lot rent for a period of two years, if the new lot rent is greater than the old lot rent.
Under Roseville Code of Ordinances ch. 1202 § 1202.08, when a mobile home park owner closes a park and serves a closure statement, the owner is required to cover certain relocation costs for displaced renters who submit documentation of their expenses. Covered costs include the actual cost of moving personal property, insurance for the replacement value of items being moved, and — if the renter's new lot rent is higher than their old lot rent — the difference in rent for up to two years. This provision establishes a financial obligation on the park owner's part that is triggered by the closure process and the renter's submission of qualifying documentation.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Park owners subject to Roseville Code of Ordinances ch. 1202 § 1202.08 generally maintain clear records of the closure statement service date and establish a process for receiving and reviewing relocation expense documentation from displaced renters. Compliant operators are prepared to reimburse three categories of costs: actual moving expenses for personal property, replacement-value insurance for items in transit, and up to two years of rent differential if the renter's new lot carries a higher monthly cost. Keeping organized documentation of all submitted contracts and verification materials helps demonstrate that payments were made in accordance with the ordinance's requirements.

Roseville Code of Ordinances ch. 1202 § 1202.08 gives displaced renters the right to have reasonable relocation costs paid by the park owner after a closure statement is served, provided the renter submits a contract or other verification of their relocation expenses. Covered costs can include moving expenses, replacement-value insurance for belongings in transit, and up to two years of any increase in monthly lot rent at the new location. Renters who believe these rights are not being honored may consider contacting a local tenant-rights organization, reviewing the full ordinance for procedural details, or consulting with a housing attorney to understand the options available under this provision.
