1. The landlord shall authorize each manager and assistant manager to make repairs himself or herself or enter into a contract with a third party for the repairs. If the repairs are subject to the provisions of NRS 118B.097, the repairs must be made in compliance with the provisions of that section.

2. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, the manager shall contract with a third party to provide emergency repairs for the tenants on the occasions when the manager and assistant manager are not physically present in the park. The manager shall notify each tenant of the telephone number of the third party who will make the repairs, and direct the tenants to call the third party when an emergency repair is needed and the manager and assistant manager are not physically present in the park. The telephone number so provided must be that of the third party directly. The provision of the telephone number of an answering service does not fulfill this requirement. If the manager or assistant manager is present in the park, any request for repairs must be made to the manager or assistant manager and not the third party.

3. The provisions of subsection 2 do not apply to a manufactured home park that is owned by:

(a) A nonprofit organization; or

(b) A housing authority,

if the nonprofit organization or housing authority has established an alternative method to provide emergency repairs for tenants in a timely manner.

4. As used in this section, "repairs" means only repairs to the property of the owner of the manufactured home park.
