MOBILE HOME PARK REGULATIONS
It is intended that the requirements for mobile home parks shall be such that the quality of a neighborhood is not detrimentally affected by the adjacent location of a mobile home park. The mobile home park is basically a low- to medium-density residential use and shall be treated as such. Since this form of single-family housing physically contrasts substantially with typical on-site constructed housing, it is necessary to review each request via the procedures of §§ 153.240 through 153.243. This review procedure allows design adjustments to fit the constraints of any site.
