Board streamlines mobile‑home overlay language, reduces side setbacks to 10 feet
Planner David presented proposed revisions to the mobile‑home overlay district to reduce side setbacks and modernize design language for manufactured housing parks. The draft initially treated lots above and below 10,000 square feet differently; after discussion the board amended the language to a single rule: structures shall not be located less than 10 feet from any individual lot boundary.

Board members supported the amendment as a way to allow garages and orientation flexibility in newer mobile‑home parks and voted unanimously to forward a positive recommendation to city council. David confirmed the adopted wording will be recorded in the forwarding motion.
