Throughout the year GSMOL and its leaders and members help to protect your investment in your home by fighting for your rights in the courts, the Capitol and our communities. As we near the end of the year and enjoy the holiday season, we would like to ask you to consider supporting GSMOL‘s work with a tax-deductible donation to the GSMOL Education Fund. 

The Ed Fund is a newly formed sister organization of GSMOL that helps to support GSMOL‘s educational efforts. Your tax-deductible donation will help support education and outreach to manufactured-homeowners through out California.

Giving is easy:  Just go to https://www.gsmol.org/donate/ and click on the button under “501(c)(3) Education Fund.”

Q: Can park rules or regulations be changed without a meeting with homeowners?

A: No.  798.25 provides that a meeting with residents must first be noticed and actually held.  However, there is no requirement that management do anything other than show up, explain the rule and listen.  Residents have no veto power to block implementation of rules.  All rules can be unilaterally created by the park with the exception that a rule requiring mandatory arbitration, or a rule that is “unreasonable” is not enforceable
