47-06-04.1. Mobile home storm shelters - Placement and transfer of ownership

1. Upon approval of the mobile home park owner, the owner of a mobile home located in

the park may construct a storm shelter in the mobile home park. The approval must be

in writing and must include the type, location, and use of the shelter, and an

agreement between the park owner and the mobile home owner concerning ownership

and maintenance of the shelter.

2. Notwithstanding section 47-06-04, the agreement between the owner of the mobile

home and the park owner must provide that the owner of the mobile home is the

owner of the shelter and may remove the shelter provided the land is returned to its

original condition during any time that person owns the mobile home.

3. The shelter owner may transfer ownership of the shelter to either a person who

purchases the mobile home or to the mobile home park owner. The transfer must be in

writing; must include the type, location, and use of the shelter; must include the

maintenance responsibilities of the parties; and must be signed by both parties. If a

mobile home owner transfers the shelter to a purchaser of the mobile home, the terms

of the transfer must be the same as the terms of the agreement between the park

owner and the mobile home owner required under subsection 1.

a. If a suitable price cannot be agreed upon with the mobile home park owner, the

shelter owner is deemed to have transferred the ownership and maintenance

responsibilities of the shelter to the park owner without cost, unless the shelter is

removed or the shelter is transferred to a purchaser of the mobile home as

provided in this section.

b. If the park owner is unwilling to assume ownership of the shelter, the park owner

may require the mobile home owner to remove the shelter and return the land to

its original condition.

4. The park owner is not liable for any injury or damages that may occur to the mobile

home owner as a result of the installation or use of the mobile home storm shelter.

5. All shelters must meet with the approval of local governing bodies.
