Conn. Gen. Stat. § 21 § 21-83b
An owner who fails to comply with any rental agreement provision required by section 21-82 or who requires a resident to comply with any provision prohibited by section 21-83 shall be subject to the provisions of section 21-71.

Plain English

Under Conn. Gen. Stat. § 21-83b, manufactured-home park owners who fail to include required rental agreement provisions (as specified in § 21-82) or who impose prohibited provisions on residents (as specified in § 21-83) become subject to the penalty framework established in § 21-71. The rule creates accountability on both sides of the rental agreement: owners must include what the law mandates and must omit what the law forbids. Violations on either front trigger the same enforcement consequences.

For Property Managers

Conn. Gen. Stat. § 21-83b places compliance obligations squarely on park owners, meaning operators generally review their rental agreements to confirm that every provision required by § 21-82 is present and that no provision prohibited by § 21-83 has been included. A compliant operator treats these two checklists as ongoing obligations, not one-time tasks, updating agreements whenever relevant statutory changes occur. Failure on either count exposes the owner to the penalties outlined in § 21-71.

For Tenants

Conn. Gen. Stat. § 21-83b gives residents a basis to raise a violation when a park owner's rental agreement is missing legally required terms or contains terms the law prohibits. Tenants who believe their agreement runs afoul of § 21-82 or § 21-83 may consider filing a complaint with the appropriate state agency, raising the violation as a defense in a legal proceeding, or consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with Connecticut manufactured-housing law. The penalties available under § 21-71 are tied directly to the owner's noncompliance with these rental agreement standards.
