Attorney General Jonathan Skrmetti announced his office has reached a settlement with Auburn Hills Mobile Home Park to resolve the state’s suit alleging the park took advantage of residents in violation of state and federal law. Shortly after a deadly tornado in April 2020, allegations emerged that park managers were holding charitable donations intended for residents. Further investigation revealed the park failed to address severe septic issues that caused raw sewage to pool on the ground and back up into homes in addition to other charges. The settlement requires the defendants to develop a sewer system and secures $750,000 to go toward consumer restitution, civil penalties and litigation costs. Affected consumers will be contacted soon regarding restitution payments.
