Ariz. Rev. Stat. § 33-2150
For recreational vehicles that are park trailers or park models only:

1. The landlord shall notify the director and all tenants in writing of a change in use at least sixty days before a change in the age-restricted community to an all-age community use as defined by the housing for older persons act of 1995.

2. A tenant is eligible for payment from the mobile home relocation fund if both of the following conditions are met:

(a) The tenant resides in a park trailer or park model that is owned by the tenant and that is located in an age-restricted park.

(b) The landlord implements a change from an age-restricted community to an all-age community as defined by the housing for older persons act of 1995.

3. A landlord who changes a park designation from an age-restricted community shall give written notice of the applicability of this section to all affected tenants.

4. A tenant is eligible to receive relocation expenses pursuant to paragraph 2 of this section as follows:

(a) Within one hundred eighty days after the effective date of notification of the change in the age-restricted community's use, the tenant shall submit a contract for relocation of the park trailer or park model to the director for approval and to the landlord.

(b) After notice of approval by the director for the payment of relocation expenses, the tenant shall have a fully signed contract with a licensed installer or contractor to move the park trailer or park model to a specific location by a specific date and must have moved the park trailer or park model pursuant to that contract within forty-five days after notice from the director.

(c) The director shall approve or disapprove the contract submitted within fifteen days after receipt of the contract, and the contract is deemed to be approved on the sixteenth day if the director takes no action.

(d) If the contract is approved, the payment of relocation expenses shall be made to the installer or contractor when both of the following have been completed:

(i) The installer or contractor has obtained valid permits to move the park trailer or park model to a new location.

(ii) The installer or contractor provides documentation to the department that the installation of the park trailer or park model at the new location is complete and has been inspected by the department or its designee and is approved for occupancy.

(e) If the contract is not approved, the tenant may appeal to an administrative law judge pursuant to title 41, chapter 37, article 5. The tenant shall provide notice pursuant to section 33-2105, subsection I, if the tenant relocates.

(f) On approval, the tenant is eligible for the lesser of the actual moving expenses of relocating the park trailer or park model or four thousand dollars. Compensable moving expenses include the cost of stabilizing, taking down, moving and setting up the park trailer or park model in the new location if the park trailer or park model is relocated to another age-restricted community within this state.

5. The landlord shall not be responsible for making any payment into the mobile home relocation fund for any park trailer or park model moved pursuant to this section.

Plain English

Arizona Revised Statutes § 33-2150 governs what happens when a landlord converts an age-restricted mobile home community to an all-age community, specifically for tenants who own park trailers or park models. When such a conversion occurs, the landlord must give at least 60 days' written notice to both the state director and all tenants before the change takes effect. Tenants who own their park trailer or park model and reside in the affected age-restricted park may become eligible to receive relocation assistance—up to the lesser of actual moving costs or $4,000—from the state's mobile home relocation fund, provided they follow the required contract submission and approval process within specified timeframes. The landlord is not required to contribute to the relocation fund for units moved under this provision.

For Property Managers

Under A.R.S. § 33-2150, operators who plan to convert an age-restricted community to an all-age community are generally expected to provide written notice of the change to both the state director and all tenants at least 60 days before the conversion takes effect. Compliant operators also provide written notice to all affected tenants explaining that this section applies to their situation. Importantly, landlords are not required to make payments into the mobile home relocation fund for park trailers or park models relocated under this provision, which distinguishes this scenario from other relocation fund obligations.

For Tenants

A.R.S. § 33-2150 establishes that tenants who own a park trailer or park model in an age-restricted community that is converting to an all-age community may be eligible for up to $4,000 in relocation assistance from the mobile home relocation fund, subject to meeting specific procedural requirements. To access these funds, a tenant must submit a relocation contract to the director for approval within 180 days of the effective notification date, and the actual move must be completed within 45 days of the director's approval notice. Tenants whose contracts are not approved have the right to appeal to an administrative law judge under Title 41, Chapter 37, Article 5; tenant-rights organizations or legal aid services can help explain what these procedural steps generally involve.
