For the second time in two months, residents of a manufactured home community in the State College, Pennsylvania area have been notified they need to find a new place to live. This time, according to centredailytimes, Hilltop Mobile Home Park sent letters to those who own their homes this past weekend their leases have been canceled and they must move. One resident estimated 75-100 of her neighbors would be affected, many of them elderly on fixed incomes, and said the letter did not provide a deadline for moving. Owners of the community, Kenneth Mayes and Sharon Mayes, could not be reached for comment, according to the article, and a woman who answered the phone in the community’s office confirmed only that the letters had been sent. According to city officials, there has been no transfer of the deed to the property, nor a request for rezoning. As MHProNews stated in a story posted Aug. 22, 2012, residents of Penn State Mobile Home Park were told by the owners they have until July 2013 to move because the property will be redeveloped.
