103A.26  Manufactured or mobile home installers certification -- violation -- civil penalty.

1. a.  A person who installs a manufactured or mobile home for another person shall be certified in accordance with rules adopted by the commissioner pursuant to chapter 17A. The commissioner may assess a fee sufficient to recover the costs of administering the certification of manufactured or mobile home installers. The commissioner may suspend or revoke the certification of a manufactured or mobile home installer for failure to perform installation of a manufactured or mobile home, pursuant to certification standards as provided by rules of the commissioner.

b.  Notwithstanding section 103A.23, all fees collected by the commissioner for the administration of the manufactured or mobile home program shall be credited to the general fund of the state and are appropriated to the commissioner for the purpose of administering this certification program including the employment of personnel for the enforcement and administration of this program.

2.  If a provision of this chapter or a rule adopted pursuant to this chapter relating to the manufacture or installation of a manufactured or mobile home is violated, the commissioner may assess a civil penalty not to exceed one thousand dollars for each offense. Each violation involving a separate manufactured or mobile home, or a separate failure or refusal to allow an act to be performed or to perform an act as required by this chapter or a rule adopted pursuant to this chapter, constitutes a separate offense. However, the maximum amount of civil penalties which may be assessed for any series of violations occurring within one year from the date of the first violation shall not exceed one million dollars.
