Washington Governor Jay Inslee has signed 14th District Representative Gina McCabe’s bill lowering the fine incurred by individuals who fail to use a certified installer on a mobile or manufactured home installation. House Bill 1329 lowers the fine imposed by the Department of Labor and Industries from $1,000 to $250 for the first infraction, and would prevent subsequent infractions from exceeding $1,000 per violation. McCabe says many mobile or manufactured homeowners cannot afford a $1,000 fine. She worked with Labor and Industries to develop the legislation. House Bill 1329 will go into effect 90 days after the adjournment of the 2017 legislative session.
