Sponsored by Omaha Sen. Kathleen Kauth, LB834 would allow a county assessor to appoint one or more deputies who would perform the assessor\u2019s duties in their absence. <\/p>\n

Among several other technical updates, the bill also would eliminate a $5 mobile home park permit fee and allow delinquent taxes on mobile homes, cabin trailers and manufactured homes to be extinguished after 15 years. <\/p>\n

Sen. Paul Strommen of Sidney introduced an amendment on select file to include provisions of his LB1230. They would include mobile homes under the state\u2019s Disposition of Personal Property Landlord and Tenant Act, which governs how landlords handle abandoned personal property.<\/p>\n

Under the bill, homes valued under $2,000 could be disposed of at the landlord\u2019s discretion, while homes valued over $2,000 could be sold at public auction. After completing the required steps, landlords could obtain a certificate of title from the state Department of Motor Vehicles, giving them legal control of the property.<\/p>\n

After voting 28-0 to adopt Strommen\u2019s amendment, senators advanced LB834 to the final round of debate by voice vote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
