While it is the applicants responsibility to provide correct information and know the code, the
following are some general provisions in Chapter 19.22 that would apply to this permit.
No detached accessory structure, excluding fences, shall be closer than 10 feet from a home
or accessory structure on a separate home space or any exterior property line of the property or
any public right-of-way. The distance between a detached accessory structure and a home or
accessory structure on the same home space shall be in accordance with the Building Code as
adopted in the Municipal Code.
Each home space shall be limited to the following accessory structures:
1. One detached garage or carport not exceeding 600 square feet.
2. One unenclosed porch and/or covered entry, or one enclosed porch and/or covered entry
with less than 120 square feet of extended roof area, per exterior door of the manufactured home
unit.
3. Awnings.
4. One storage shed no greater than 300 square feet of extended roof area and no taller than 8 feet
in height.
Each home space shall have two paved, off-street parking spaces measuring at least 171 square
feet each (minimum dimensions of 9 feet by 19 feet), which may be located side by side or end
to end. Garage and carport spaces shall count toward this requirement. This requirement shall not
apply to home spaces that have two designated, striped, paved parking spaces (minimum
dimensions of 9 feet by 19 feet) adjacent to the manufactured home space provided such parking
spaces and the adjacent roadway conform to the following requirements.
With regard to replacement homes for this permit, here are some of the more specific provisions
in Chapter 19.22. The applicant is required to comply with ALL provisions of the Municipal
Code.
19.22.060 Replacement Manufactured Homes
A. Manufactured homes shall only be allowed in parks zoned RMH.
B. Manufactured homes shall be certified pursuant to the “National Manufactured
Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974,” U.S.C. 5401 et seq., as amended, and
shall bear an insignia indicating such and the date of manufacture. No mobile home
manufactured prior to 1976 shall be allowed to be installed within the City.
1. Exception. A mobile home that does not meet the preceding requirement but
that existed within the City prior to the adoption of this regulation may be
relocated within the City provided such home is relocated to a space at least 100
feet farther from any public right- of-way than the space it previously occupied.
C. No manufactured home manufactured more than 10 years prior to the date of its
installation shall be allowed to be installed within the City unless such home meets the
following architectural standards:
1. The exterior of the home is free of any obvious deterioration or signs of
lack of maintenance; for example, any missing or broken shutters or trim,
damaged roofing or siding, faded or peeling paint, or similar damage or
deterioration.

2. Minimum roof pitch of 3:12 (one foot rise for each three feet of horizontal
run) or roof pitches that are designed to allow for “green” building measures
such as water collection or growing of gardens.
3. Roof material of asphalt shingles or colored, non-galvanized standing seam
material.
4. Exterior siding material of wood or vinyl siding or stucco or material
equivalent in appearance, or siding that is of similar appearance and meets
green building standards such as recycled concrete or metal.
5. Skirting material of stucco or material similar in appearance to stucco or
vinyl skirting in good repair that is compatible with the home.
6. This subsection C shall not apply to a mobile home that is moved from one
mobile home space to another space within the same mobile home park as long
as the space to which it is being moved is farther from any public right-of-way
than the space from which it is being moved.
7. Two or more compatible or complementary colors on exterior of home,
including the colors on shutters or trim, if any.
D. No person shall install any manufactured home within the City of Evans without
first obtaining a building permit from the City. The application for the permit shall be on a
form provided by the City and shall be signed by both the owner of the home and the owner
of the park, or their representatives. A permit for a manufactured home shall not be issued by
the City if the park has any pending or outstanding Municipal Code violations that have not
been corrected after due notice.
E. Any home that is removed from its space shall not be replaced by another home
except in conformance with the Municipal Code.
F. No home shall be removed from a park without first obtaining a house-moving
permit from the City.
G. No home shall be occupied prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy. Prior to
issuance of a certificate of occupancy the City shall inspect the home to ensure it is located
and set in accordance with this chapter, applicable Building Code requirements, and any other
relevant provision of the Evans Municipal Code. All homes shall be connected to public water
and sewer service and gas and/or electricity service prior to issuance of a certificate of
occupancy. Issuance of a certificate of occupancy shall require that all accessory structures on
the space on which the manufactured home is located comply with the requirements of this
chapter.
H. Required internal and public setbacks.
1. No home, exclusive of trailer hitches and eaves shall be located within
10 feet of any other home. No decks, stairs, or other appurtenances shall be

carports, decks, awnings, or other additions, shall be located within 25 feet
of any public right-of-way.
3. No home, exclusive of trailer hitches and eaves shall be located within
10 feet of any perimeter property line of the park. No decks, stairs, or other
appurtenances shall be located within 5 feet of any perimeter property line.

J. Manufactured homes shall be fully skirted prior to issuance of a certificate of
occupancy. Such skirting shall be durable, rigid weather-resistant material.
K. Prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy, the space unit number shall be
indicated on the home or on the space so that the space is clearly identifiable from the
nearest street.
L. The maximum height of any manufactured home or garage accessory to a
manufactured home shall be 15 feet.
M. Manufactured homes located within 75 feet of a public right-of-way shall have the following
additional requirements:
1. There shall be a minimum of one two-inch-caliper tree planted between the
home and each right-of-way. Such trees shall be of a species listed on the City’s
Approved Landscape Planning List. Existing trees shall be considered as meeting
this requirement only if they are in good condition and of a species listed on the
City’s Approved Landscape Planning List. The park owner shall be responsible
for ensuring that such trees are maintained and watered and shall promptly
replace any diseased, dead, or dying trees. City staff shall have the discretion to
allow the placement of trees required by this subsection to be relocated to other
areas of the park or adjacent land if such areas would be more suitable for such
trees. Alternative plans for improvements in lieu of trees may be proposed by a
park owner for review and consideration of approval by the Evans Planning
Commission.

contain at least one window with a minimum area of four square feet. (Ord.
