Summary

The commission approved Resolution 2026-095 granting a 17-foot backyard setback for a manufactured home at 103 North Arrow Drive where the typical requirement is 22 feet, citing lot size and existing conditions.

Commissioners voted to approve a 17-foot backyard setback variance for placement of a manufactured home at 103 North Arrow Drive.

Staff described the lot as shorter than a standard 140-foot lot and explained the conflict between the residential and manufactured housing codes that leaves the smaller-lot requirement at 22 feet; staff said the requested 17-foot setback has been granted in similar circumstances. "They wanna get a new manufactured double...to place on the lot in a growing family," staff said, noting the unit would meet front and side setbacks and the rear setback was the only variance requested. After no public comment, the commission voted in favor and the resolution passed.
