Manufactured Home Community Redevelopment Program
The Manufactured Home Community Redevelopment Program is a grant program to fund infrastructure improvements or the acquisition of manufactured home parks.
The program addresses the needs of aging manufactured home communities around the state and prioritizes projects based on health, safety and critical need improvements. It also prioritizes projects leveraging support from local municipalities or projects converting a community to a cooperative ownership model.
Eligible applicants include privately, publicly or cooperatively owned communities, as well as nonprofit organizations acting as an intermediary on behalf of a park.
Funds will be available through an annual competitive request for proposals (RFP) process, beginning in summer with funding recommendations selected mid-winter.
Feature: "Better Together"
In “Better Together,” two dynamic women, Bev Adrian and Natividad Seefeldt, share their journeys in pursuing a cooperative ownership model in which residents own their home as well as the land under it. Doing so insulates them from potential sales of their communities that could displace residents.
Investing in manufactured housing infrastructure is an emerging area at Minnesota Housing.
