Commission approves conditional‑use permit to relocate manufactured home to AG‑10 parcel with one‑year review condition
Summary
The board approved CUP26‑0002 for Allen and Michelle Pierce to place a manufactured home (built 2000) on a 15.055‑acre AG‑10 parcel in Jefferson County, adding a one‑year review condition for building‑permit compliance.
Jefferson County commissioners approved conditional‑use permit CUP26‑0002 to allow a manufactured home older than 15 years to be relocated onto a 15.055‑acre AG‑10 parcel in the county.
Staff presented photos and the site plan, noting the structure was built in 2000 and would be placed on piers with plans to meet foundation requirements during the building‑permit review. Staff told the commission that agencies were notified and that public comment included two letters in favor and one comment expressing concern about the home's age (SEG 1024–1106).
Applicant Alan Pierce described the home’s recent improvements, saying it has "new windows" and "a new roof" and that he planned to install concrete runners and hurricane straps and to improve the exterior siding to provide an updated appearance (SEG 1118–1149). Commissioners discussed making compliance part of the permit and the building department’s role in verifying a permanent foundation. One commissioner suggested an annual review after one year to confirm building‑code compliance and then reduce further inspections if standards were met.
Motion and vote: A commissioner moved to approve CUP26‑0002 based on the staff report and findings; the motion passed unanimously with a condition for one annual inspection/review as noted in the hearing record.
Why it matters: The decision allows a home older than the county's 15‑year threshold to be placed with conditions that the building‑permit review and subsequent inspections confirm safe, permanent foundation and code compliance.
