Current Bill Summary

SCS/HCS/HB 1225 - This act modifies terms of the "Self-Service Storage Facilities Act" found in sections 415.400-415.425 allowing for communication through electronic mail means for required written notices. The act requires that the liability of a self storage facility owner shall be deemed to be any limit on the value of the stored property in a rental agreement, if such term is present. This act also allows for an owner of a self storage facility to treat a stored vehicle, watercraft, or trailer as an abandoned vehicle and have the vehicle towed if rent and other charges remain unpaid for sixty days. This act also requires occupants of self service storage facilities provide the name and address of any third party owners of stored property and that owners so notified must notify such third party owners prior to any sale of the stored property.
