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 mobile home owners must redeem vouchers received from the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation and to identify the method of delivery of vouchers to mobile home owners. 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 its Forms. The purpose and effect of the proposed amendments to the forms is as follows: (1) to obtain additional information from applicants; (2) to implement the changes contemplated by the proposed amendments to Rule 61M-1.002 (Claims Procedures); (3) to correct a clerical 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; (4) to give additional notice to mobile home owners that vouchers must be redeemed within a specific timeframe; and (5) to make any other revisions necessary to any of its Forms.
