Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in California

Hello,

I live in California in a mobile home. My question is: If I am legally married am I allowed to have one other person live with me and my spouse with no extra fees? The CA Mobile home law regarding fees is listed below. Thanks for your help.

798.34 GUEST FEES

(b) A homeowner who is living alone and who wishes to share his or her mobilehome with one

person may do so, and a fee shall not be imposed by management for that person. The person shall be considered a guest of the homeowner and any agreement between the homeowner and the person shall not change the terms and conditions of the rental agreement between management and the homeowner. The guest shall comply with the provisions of the rules and regulations of the mobilehome park.

798.35 MEMBERS OF IMMEDIATE FAMILY - NO FEES

A homeowner shall not be charged a fee based on the number of members in his or her immediate family. As used in this section, the �immediate family� shall be limited to the homeowner, his or her spouse, their parents, their children, and their grandchildren under 18 years of age
