12.2.5 Expiration of Closure Notice. The mobile home park shall be deemed to
have closed at such time as at least 18 months from delivery of notice has elapsed,
or at the end of such longer Notice Period as may have been identified by the park
owner, and fewer than three (3) mobile homes are occupied within what had been
the mobile home park, or when every leaseholder and resident has vacated the
mobile home park and removed his or her mobile home and possessions,
whichever is sooner. However, if the park owner has not completed the park
closure or commenced eviction proceedings within 18 months after the proposed
closure date or expiration of the Notice Period, whichever is later, the closure
notice shall be deemed void, and any attempt to close the mobile home park shall
require a new notice process pursuant to paragraph 12.2.2. Notwithstanding the
voiding of the closure notice, evictions already commenced may continue.

12.3 No Force or Self Help. A leaseholder shall not be evicted by force or any other
self-help measure.

12.4 Illegal Evictions. Willful interruption of any utility service other than for
necessary repairs on a temporary basis, or eviction or other denial of access by a park
owner to a resident’s property other than by order of court shall be considered an illegal
eviction. Condemnation of a lot or a mobile home resulting from the acts or omissions of
the park owner shall be considered an illegal eviction. This shall not be construed to
prohibit disconnection due to nonpayment of water charges by a water system approved
by the Vermont Public Service Board, nor to interfere in any way with rights and
obligations of an approved water system.
