Latest version.
  • Any manufactured home on an individual parcel that is used for residential purposes must meet the following standards:

    A.

    Be a minimum of twenty feet wide;

    B.

    Include a garage or carport. This requirement may be waived by the director where the deletion would be consistent with the surrounding neighborhood. Where required, the external material and roofing of the garage or carport must be the same as that of the dwelling unit.

    C.

    The manufactured home must be covered with an exterior material customarily used on conventional dwellings. The exterior covering material must extend to the ground, except that when a solid concrete or masonry perimeter foundation is used, the exterior covering material need not extend below the top of the foundation. Acceptable exterior covering materials include, but are not limited to, clapboards, simulated clapboards such as conventional vinyl or metal siding, wood shingles, shakes, or similar material, but excluding smooth, ribbed, or corrugated metal or plastic panels.

    D.

    The roof must be pitched so there is at least a two inch vertical rise for each twelve inches of vertical run. It must consist of materials customarily used on conventional dwellings, including, but not limited to, approved wood, asphalt composition shingles, shakes, or similar material, but excluding smooth, ribbed, or corrugated metal or plastic panels.

    E.

    The roof overhang must not be less than one foot measured from the vertical side of the home. When carports, garages, porches, or similar structures are attached as an integral part of the home, the director may waive the requirement.
