Tips

  • Manufactured homes are grouped under the 'Residential' category on the Town's Submittal Review Timelines chart, alongside accessory buildings, plumbing, electrical, mechanical, park models, pools, remodel, solar, and gas — 10-day Administrative Review plus 20 business days for 1st/2nd review, 15 for subsequent.
  • The State of Arizona Office of Manufactured Housing governs the unit's own construction/installation standards; the Town's fee explicitly follows 'the most current Office of Manufactured Housing Intergovernmental Agreement,' meaning the $450 figure is tied to a state-level agreement that should be reconfirmed if it has been updated since this fee schedule revision.
  • Park Model Placement in a legal non-conforming RV park with privately owned lots can retain reduced fire-separation distances under the Town's IRC § R302.1 amendment (exceptions 6-9).
