SB 118 Law Takes Effect

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed SB 118, requiring RV parks to be assessed as commercial property (similar to hotels) rather than residential neighborhoods. This prevents charging fees for each site as permanently occupied housing. The law took effect on April 22 and will first apply to the 2026 tax roll.

New Park in Starkville

The Starkville (Mississippi) City Council approved a zoning exception for the Traditions Motorcoach Park, a 13.5-acre development with 72 privately owned sites. Plots are expected to sell for around $100,000 each.

In Miami, 200 families are being evicted from a motorhome park by September, while Córdoba is only just applying for permission for a new overnight area.
