(a) (1) Subject to paragraph (2), change in ownership shall
not include any transfer on or after January 1, 1989, of a mobilehome
park to a nonprofit corporation, stock cooperative corporation,
tenant-in-common ownership group, or any other entity, including a
governmental entity, if, within 18 months after the transfer, the
mobilehome park is transferred by that corporation or other entity,
including a governmental entity, to a nonprofit corporation, stock
cooperative corporation, or other entity formed by the tenants of the
mobilehome park in a transaction that is excluded from change in
ownership by paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) of Section 62.1, or at
least 51 percent of the mobilehome park rental spaces are transferred
to the individual tenants of those spaces in a transaction excluded
from change in ownership by paragraph (2) subdivision (a) of Section
62.1.
   (2) (A) Any mobilehome park that was initially transferred on or
after January 1, 1993, to a nonprofit corporation, stock cooperative
corporation, tenant-in-common ownership group, or any other entity,
including a governmental entity, that is subsequently transferred
within 36 months of that initial transfer as provided in paragraph
(1), shall qualify for the exclusion from change in ownership
pursuant to this subdivision.  In applying the 36-month limit
specified in the preceding sentence to the subsequent transfer to an
individual tenant, as provided in paragraph (1), of a rental space in
a mobilehome park that was initially transferred on or after January
1, 1995, to a nonprofit corporation, stock cooperative corporation,
tenant-in-common ownership group, or any other entity, the execution
of a purchase contract and the opening of a bona fide purchase escrow
with a licensed escrow agent shall be deemed to transfer the rental
space in compliance with that 36-month limit, provided that both of
the following conditions are met:
   (i) The escrow is opened prior to the expiration of the 36-month
time period.
   (ii) The escrow closes on a date no later than six months after
the end of the 36-month time period.
   (B) A mobilehome park located within a disaster area that was
initially transferred on or after October 1, 1991, and before October
31, 1991, to a nonprofit corporation, stock cooperative corporation,
or other entity, that is subsequently transferred within 76 months
of that initial transfer as provided in paragraph (1), shall qualify
for the exclusion from change in ownership pursuant to this
subdivision.  For purposes of the preceding sentence, "mobilehome
park located within a disaster area" means a mobilehome park that is
located in the County of Los Angeles in an area for which both of the
following apply:
   (i) The Governor, as a result of the January 17, 1994, Northridge
earthquake, has declared the area to be in a state of disaster and
certified the area's need for assistance.
   (ii) The President of the United States has, pursuant to federal
law, determined the area to be in a state of major disaster.
   The exclusion from change in ownership pursuant to this
subdivision of a mobilehome park located within a disaster area shall
be effective commencing with the 1995-96 fiscal year, and shall not
require any affected county to refund any amount of property tax
levied with respect to a mobilehome park for the period from October
1, 1991, to June 30, 1995, inclusive.
   (b) With respect to any transfer of any mobilehome park on or
after January 1, 1989, subject to this section, the individual
tenants who are renting at least a majority of the spaces in the
mobilehome park prior to the transfer to the entity formed by the
tenants for the acquisition of the park shall participate in the
transaction through the ownership of an aggregate of at least a
majority of voting stock of, or other ownership or membership
interest in, that entity.
   (c) This section shall not apply if any fees charged the
mobilehome park tenants in connection with either the first or second
transfer exceed 15 percent of the total consideration paid for the
mobilehome park in the first transfer, plus any accrued interest and
taxes.
   (d) If the assessor is notified in writing at the time the
transferee files the change in ownership statement that the
transferee intends to qualify the transfer under this section, the
mobilehome park shall not be reappraised pending satisfaction of the
relevant conditions set forth in this section for exclusion from
change in ownership.  If the transferee fails to satisfy those
conditions, the assessor shall reappraise the mobilehome park and
levy escape assessments or supplemental assessments, as appropriate.
For escape or supplemental assessments levied pursuant to the
preceding sentence with respect to a mobilehome park located within a
disaster area, both of the following conditions shall apply:
   (1) The limitations period shall be that period specified in
either subdivision (b) of Section 532 or subdivision (d) of Section
75.11, as applicable.
   (2) For purposes of applying the limitations periods specified in
paragraph (1), the expiration date of the 76-month period specified
in subdivision (a) shall be deemed to be the date upon which the
initial transfer of the mobilehome park was reported to the assessor.
