Breaking Down Your HCD Fees
As the association representing RV parks and campgrounds, we are sometimes the go-between when it comes to HCD. Let’s face it, no one wants to draw attention by reaching out to HCD, so we are often called upon to intercede.
Recently, the question was asked if HCD increased their rates. The answer – YES. Fee increases were effective as of April 1, 2024, but parks should really rely on their PTO invoices to best identify the fees due. As a matter of reference your fees break down as follows:
SOPs pay an annual operating fee of $25, plus $2.00 per lot plus $4.00 for the one allowable mobilehome PLUS state fees of $7 per lot. i.e.: a 100-site park would pay $929.
If your park is registered as a MOBILEHOME PARK (even if you are operating as an RV park) you pay an annual operating fee of $140, plus 7.00 per lot plus 4.00 per lot for MPM fee (mobilehome park maintenance), plus state fees of $7.00 per lot. i.e.: a 100-site park would pay $1940.
Neither MH or SOPs use the ranges in fee charts for state fees any longer.
Additionally, fees for services and inspections have also increased. All of the 2024 fee change information can be found on our website or by clicking the button below. Mobile Home Parks begin on the bottom of page 2 and Special Occupancy Parks begin on the top of page 20. If you believe you have been charged incorrectly or need more information about your fees you can reach out to Emilie Hill at (916) 820-1486 or Emilie.Hill@hcd.ca.gov. You can also call our office and we can assist.
