Proposed code would allow permanent tiny‑home parks in R‑4; mobile tiny homes still restricted

Apr 30, 2026

The packet defines tiny homes (permanently installed under 400 sq ft), allows tiny home parks as an R‑4 use and clarifies tiny homes on wheels (mobile units under 400 sq ft) are not allowed as residential uses in town and must be parked in RV parks.

The full story

The proposed zoning‑code amendments include a definition of "tiny home" as a permanently installed dwelling unit under 400 square feet and add tiny home parks as an allowable use in R‑4 residential districts with accompanying design guidelines (new Section 18.100.290). At the same time the packet states that "tiny homes on wheels"—mobile units under 400 square feet—are not permitted as a residential use in any residential zone and must be parked in an RV park.
