Purpose
The purpose and effect of the proposed rule amendment to 61M-1.002 (Claims Procedures) will be to set forth a specific timeframe within which a mobile home owner must redeem a voucher received from the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation. Currently, there is no specific timeframe or deadline. The addition of a specific timeframe within which vouchers must be redeemed will allow the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation to better measure its future financial obligations.
The Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation will also address proposed amendments to FORM 1001, FORM 1002, FORM 1004, and FORM 1007. The purpose and effect of the proposed amendments to the forms is as follows: (1) to obtain additional contact information from applicants so that the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation can contact applicants; (2) to correct an error on Form 1001 which conflicts with Rule 61M-1.002 (Claims Procedures) by giving applicants the option of submitting a signed contract with an installer with their application for relocation expenses; (3) to revise Form 1004 to give additional notice to mobile home owners that vouchers must be redeemed within a specific timeframe; and (4) to make minor grammatical changes and revisions for clarity.
