HB 1471 -- Self-Service Storage Facilities

Sponsor:  Skaggs

Current law states that the operator of a self-service storage
facility has a lien on all personal property stored within each
leased space.  The bill states that this lien is in effect
regardless of whether or not the property being stored in the
facility is owned by the occupant.  The bill states that the lien
attaches when personal property is brought to the self-service
storage facility or when the occupant takes possession of the
self-storage facility.

Current law states that if an occupant is in default, the
operator of the facility must give the occupant notice that he or
she will be denied access to the leased space.  The bill states
that if the occupant is in default for at least five days the
owner may deny the occupant access to the leased space without
notice and may proceed without judicial process.
