(A) Applications for installation permits shall also contain the license number and name of the contractor and licensed installer;
(B) All installations shall meet the minimum requirements as set forth in the State-approved installation instruction for the specific unit or model, or in the current Idaho Manufactured Home Installation Standard, whichever is stricter.
(C) Every installation requires a permit, including but not limited to moving from one space to another in a legally approved manufactured home park or placing a different home in a space that had a previous home in a legally approved manufactured home park.
(D) A building permit is required and must be obtained for any remodel or change to the interior or exterior of a manufactured building before any work may be performed. No structural changes or additions can be constructed on a manufactured building without submittal of plans stamped by an engineer licensed in the State of Idaho. Manufactured buildings cannot change occupancy. (Ord. 424, 12-15-2020)
