Commission backs text amendment to allow manufactured homes where single‑family dwellings are permitted
Summary
Staff presented A‑26‑2 to comply with state House Bill 65655 by adding manufactured homes as permitted uses in single‑family zoning districts and a new lot‑orientation rule; the commission recommended approval.
Staff presented Zoning Text Amendment A‑26‑2 to implement state House Bill 65655 and update local code. Mr. Colbert explained the ordinance language will allow manufactured homes in all zoning districts that permit single‑family dwellings, provided the home is converted to real property in accordance with Virginia Code §46.2‑653.1(B) and achieves certificate of occupancy within five years of manufacture. He also described a new supplemental section requiring single‑family dwellings to have their main entry face the street unless the lot is at least 105 feet from the street centerline.
Commissioners asked follow‑up questions in the workshop; no members of the public spoke at the hearing. A motion to recommend A‑26‑2 to the Board of Supervisors carried, sending the draft ordinance and staff report forward for the board’s consideration.
