Lorain City Council unanimously passed an ordinance amending multiple sections of the city zoning code to address manufactured homes and related definitions. The measure was added to the agenda and the council waived the three‑reading rule before voting.
Councilman Nutt introduced the ordinance and Councilman Macchio moved to waive three readings. During debate, Councilman Hud moved and the council adopted an amendment to add a permanent citation permitting manufactured homes under the referenced Ohio Revised Code provision. The motion to amend carried unanimously, and the ordinance passed as amended.
The amendment text, as added on the floor, referenced a state statutory provision by number and stated that permanently sited manufactured homes meeting that state standard would be permitted under the zoning code. Council did not discuss detailed implementation steps at length during the meeting; the ordinance was taken up and passed in the same session.
