Resident seeks variance to replace mobile home at 206 North Hackett; asks for five years to clear old unit
Summary
Patricia King told the council she wants to place a new manufactured home at 206 N Hackett and requested a five‑year variance to remove an existing trailer while she clears belongings; neighbors who returned notices reportedly supported the request.
Patricia King, who identified herself as a long‑time Seymour resident, asked the city for a specific‑use permit to place a new manufactured home at 206 North Hackett and for a variance that would allow the existing mobile home to remain temporarily while she clears out decades of belongings.
King told the council the older trailer was moved onto the lot around 2000 after a house burned on the property. She said she lives alone, works 12‑hour shifts and does not have the time or help to clear and remove the older unit quickly. “I work 5 to 6 days, 12 hour shifts… I’m the one that’s cleaning out,” King said, and she asked the council for about five years to complete the work. She added that if she can finish sooner she will.
Staff noted the city sent statutory notices for the request (200‑foot notification) and said only a few neighbors returned responses; staff reported no negative responses among those returned. The council discussed whether five years was longer than usual but did not record a final decision in the portions of the transcript provided.
Bottom line: King requested approval to place a new manufactured home and a variance to allow the existing mobile home to remain temporarily; the council heard public comment and discussed the request but no final vote is recorded in the available transcript.
Next steps: The council will consider the application consistent with its normal procedures; staff noted notices already went to adjacent property owners.
