Troubled Section of Land Lease Community to Close

manufactured homes  abandoned   kaitlyn walsh  northfieldnews creditOne third of the Glasgow Court land lease community in New Castle County, Delaware will close as of July, 2015, displacing residents of 167 homes, to make way for an apartment building, according to delawareonline.com. Kelli DiSabatino, chief operating officer of community owner GCE LLC, noting that part of the community has become crime and drug-ridden, says, “We’re hoping that by doing something there that’s nice, it’s going to hopefully make a change.” She has room to accommodate 130 homes in the other section of the 115 acre community, but residents will have to undergo criminal and credit background checks.

Delaware’s Manufactured Home Relocation Authority will pay up to $5,000 to relocate a single-section manufactured home (MH) within 25 miles, $9,000 for a multsection model and a minimum of $1,500 for a home that cannot be moved. DiSabatino adds that the new rent justification bill hampers the “ongoing viability of the community and the business which it runs,” as she tells MHProNews, but she intends to maintain the rest of the area as an MHC, make some infrastructure improvements and re-build a sense of community. Glasgow is the first MHC in Delaware to close since 2009. ##
