13.8 DEFINITION
Manufactured homes are single-or multi-width units constructed partially off-site and transported to a site to be completed and anchored to a permanent foundation. Manufactured homes are structures built to the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards (FMHCSS) and evidenced by an affixed HUD Certification Label. They are not the same as a modular home. The primary distinction between manufactured homes and modular lies in the construction standards or code and the inspection processes they must adhere to.
Unless otherwise specified in this section, the guidelines and procedures outlined in Chapters 6 and 12 for new construction should be followed.
