LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST AB 2495, Correa. Mobilehomes. Existing law authorizes certain factory-built housing, mobilehomes, manufactured homes, or multiunit manufactured housing to be affixed to a foundation system within a mobilehome park if the installation conforms to the rules of the mobilehome park, the installation is approved, as specified, and no single structure exceeds 2 stories in height or contains more than 4 dwelling units. This bill would delete the requirement that no single structure contain more than 4 dwelling units. The bill would provide that the number of dwelling units per structure for any manufactured home or mobilehome consisting of 2 or more dwelling units, or multiunit manufactured housing, sited in a mobilehome park on or after January 1, 2003, shall conform to a zone designation or conditional use permit that currently applies to the park or an amended or new zone designation or conditional use permit that is additionally granted to the park. The bill would make other, technical, nonsubstantive changes. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1.
