The defendant also relies on Palm Beach Mobile Homes, Inc. v. Strong, 300 So. 2d 881 (Fla. 1974), and on Cider Barrel Mobile Home Court v. Eader, 287 Md. 571, 414 A.2d 1246 (1980). Neither case is helpful in supporting the defendant’s position that General Statutes § 21-79 violates the takings clause of the fifth amendment to the United States constitution. In Palm Beach Mobile Homes, Inc. v. Strong, supra, 887, the Florida Supreme Court found that the appellant’s challenge under the takings clause to a Florida statute regulating mobile home park owners was moot and did not address this claim. In Cider Barrel Mobile Home Court v. Eader, supra, 580-81, the Maryland Court of Appeals held that a Maryland statute regulating mobile home park owners did not violate the takings clause. The Cider Barrel Mobile Home Court court relied in part on the fact that the statute did “not prevent a park owner from refusing to renew a lease” in determining that the statute was constitutional. Id., 581. The court did not address whether a statute that requires a park owner to demonstrate good cause for evicting a tenant would violate the takings clause.
