5 Patrick Mallett: Exactly. You’re coming to a space that’s designated on a site plan as temporary or permanent. And if 216 you’re in a temporary space you’re suppose to be built to an RV standard and have a hook up. 217 218 Lydia Wegman: What if a tiny home is set on a single-family lot? 219 220 Michael Harvey: It has to meet state building code. 221 222 Maxecine Mitchell: With the tiny home meeting the RV standard can only stay at a RV park for a certain length of 223 time? 224 225 Patrick Mallett: Just the same as a RV. 226 227 Buddy Hartley: How long can it stay there? 228 229 Patrick Mallett: 180 days. 230 231 Buddy Hartley: What happens if it’s there after 180 days? 232 233 Patrick Mallett: It’s a violation… On the enforcement end of this, transcending the text change is how do we deal with 234 that? 235 236 Maxecine Mitchell: Right now they couldn’t be on either one? The tiny home. 237 238 Patrick Mallett: No, because it’s not meeting that standard. 239 240 Buddy Hartley: Could you drive it around the block and bring it back? 241 242 Patrick Mallett: I think that’s a discussion for the enforcers to come up with some policy that’s appropriate. But I think 243 it’s in the realm of possibility to require, as part of its approval… That there’s a statement and there’s an affidavit 244 that’s recorded on a lot that you’re not going to have tenants staying there in your temporary spaces for longer than 245 180 days. Period. 246 247 Patrick Mallet continued presentation. 248 249 Tony Blake: Is anything grandfathered in this? 250 251 Patrick Mallett: If you’re a mobile home park and you’re there and it either pre-dated our zoning requirements it’s the 252 same. You can do nothing, and this is not going to impact what you have today nor are these requirements really 253 going to create additional items, if you have mobile homes there’s no additional suffering in terms of… It’s when you 254 want to convert portions to temporary. That’s when you have to do additional things. But the performance standards 255 and the requirements; we made a conscience effort to make it the same. 256 257 Michael Harvey: Tony, one thing to keep in mind is that with the current regulations, which are applicable, we have to 258 do our own inspections. We work with several park owners to address violations that they still have to comply with. 259 Our goal is to try to work with park owners that have illegally allowed, for example, 3 units in 1 5,000 square foot 260 space. You’re going to have to address that violation. That’s one huge violation. The other violation that we see a lot 261 of is illegal additions on mobile homes that essentially invalidate its HUD certificate, but also a violation of state 262 building code and zoning. So unfortunately we have 90 parks that we are inspecting. I would say we have done 40, 263 and have worked on several issues in those 40. There are multitudes more. We have just scratched the service. But 264 a lot of our efforts are trying to coordinate with land records and emergency service staff, trying to fix any and all 265 addressing problems so there is an appropriate level of compliance where this is an address, this is where they have 266 to go, and emergency services know where to go when there is an emergency. 267 268 Lydia Wegman: Did you hear anything of concern at the July 20th meetings you had? 269 10
