RE: July 28, 2020 Work Session Summary – Manufactured Housing Zoning
At the July 28th City Council Work Session, staff provided an update on topics related to the
forthcoming Manufactured Housing (M-H) zone district, including how land use guidance in the
City’s policy plans influences rezoning of properties to the new district, and an updated rezoning
timeline which will now occur after the manufactured housing redevelopment moratorium expires.
All councilmembers were present for the discussion via Zoom.
General direction and discussions from the work session included:
Manufactured Housing Property Rezonings
General support to move forward and consider rezoning residential properties containing
manufactured housing communities to the new M-H district.
Openness to consider rezoning commercial properties to the M-H district based on their
individual merits. Any commercial property rezonings should be separated from the
remaining rezoning process due to their unique circumstances and requirements to amend
City policy plans.
Reviewing how the new zone district can be a proactive tool for both the preservation of
existing parks and a proactive tool for new development.
Discussion and direction to explore additional preservation incentives to support park
owners and residents.
Discussion that the new ad-hoc housing committee may wish to discuss manufactured
housing topics, such as the role of the new M-H district for new manufactured housing
development.
Manufactured Housing Redevelopment Moratorium
Support to bring forward an extension of the redevelopment moratorium for up to four
months.

Manufactured Housing Zoning
Next Steps
On August 4th, staff will bring forward for Council’s consideration:
o Proposed Municipal Code changes to address residents’ rights and livability issues
o Proposed Land Use Code changes to create the new M-H district
o An extension of the manufactured housing redevelopment moratorium
Additional outreach is planned with residents, owners, and managers in the coming
months specifically related to the rezoning of properties to the M-H district.
Staff will investigate opportunities to discuss manufactured housing topics with the new
ad-hoc housing committee and continue researching and identifying incentives for the
preservation of manufactured housing communities.
