*649We also conclude that the statute does not unduly harm the economic interests of mobile home park owners. Unlike the ordinance in Hall v. Santa Barbara, our statute does not provide for rent control and limit the owner to a below market income. General Statutes § 21-80 (b) (5), of course, does require that rent increases on one tenant be “consistent with rents for comparable lots in the same park.” There is no restriction, however, upon a general rent increase for all of the sites within a park. A land owner also may evict a tenant in order to use the site for any purpose other than as a lot for a mobile home, although one year’s notice is required. General Statutes § 21-80 (b) (1) (E). The only evidence of economic harm that the defendant has presented is that the tenant who sells his mobile home on-site receives a greater price for his home than it would otherwise bring because of the right to continued occupancy of the site that is also transferred to the purchaser. Because of the scarcity of mobile home sites, resulting largely from zoning ordinances that bar the establishment of new mobile home developments, the legislature could reasonably have concluded that a substantial portion of the price paid for a mobile home purchased on-site is attributable to the continuing right to lease the site that accompanies the sale. If the mobile home park operator could require the site to be vacated, he, rather than the tenant, would be in the position to demand for a mobile home that he had placed on the site a price greater than the home itself would bring because of the right to continued occupancy that is incident to the sale. In choosing the tenant rather than the mobile home park operator as the recipient of this economic advantage arising from the near-monopoly status of the industry, the legislature, by allocating its benefit to those who generally are more in need, has not violated any constitutional principle. In our view, § 21-79 strikes a reasonably fair balance between the *650economic interests of mobile home tenants and those of mobile home park operators. Accordingly, we conclude that the statute does not violate the takings clause of the fifth amendment to the United States constitution. VI
