Ordinance and the Zoning Ordinance to include requirements for manufactured housing. (97-
806)'
Senior Planner McCully discussed the reasons for this amendment. She stated that last year the Zoning
Ordinance 'was amended to bring the restrictions in line with the Texas State :Housing Act, which
requires cities to permit HUD-code manufactured homes within thecity limits (the previous ordinance
had addressed only. mobile homes). Mobile homes and manufactured homes are now listed as permitted
uses in the A-O, A-OX, and R-7 zoning districts. The R-7 Mobile Home Park restrictions should be
updated to address manufactured homes. and to ensure that any new parks meet the minimum standards
required of all other developments in the City. This ordinance amendment is intended to effect several
changes, including requiring Zoning Ordinance site plan requirements of Sections 9 (parking), 10 (site
plan), and 11 (landscaping for manufactured .home parks); requiring location permits for manufactured
homes in the districts where the .uses .are permitted. (R-7, A-O, and A-O~; and requiring plumbing and
tie down standards when such structures are brought into the City (R-7, A O, and A-0~.
The draft ordinance specifically accomplishes the following:
1) Requires all mobile homes and manufactured homes to secure a location permit to ensure
compliance with setbacks and land use restrictions.
