Commission Asked to Propose Ordinance Addressing Manufactured Homes and Requiring 2-car Garage

At the March 4, 2021, Lyon County Board of Commissioners meeting, Commissioner Keller requested staff prepare a code amendment to require new manufactured homes to be used as a single-family residential dwelling unit under Chapter 15.351.03 (A) and (B) to be placed on a traditional full poured-in-place foundation versus an 8-point foundation and include a minimum 2-car garage.

At their November 9, 2021 meeting, the Lyon County Planning Commission voted unanimously (7-0) to forward a recommendation of approval of the proposed code amendment.
