Manufactured home subdivisions are only permitted in the General District; see the Table of Permitted Principal Uses in § 334-21 of Article V.

The minimum size of the tract of land to be subdivided must be 10 acres.

Only single-family manufactured homes are permitted, and only one manufactured home may be placed on each residential lot within a subdivision.

Each manufactured home shall be affixed to a permanent foundation.

The subdivision shall be screened along its perimeter by a permanent buffer area, not less than 50 feet wide, composed of trees, shrubs or other suitable buffer approved by the Planning Board. The buffer area may be placed on individual lots within the subdivision.

Each manufactured home lot within the subdivision shall meet the dimensional requirement for single-family use in the Table of Minimum Dimensional Requirements in § 334-27 of Article VII.

Manufactured home parks shall be permitted in the General District; see the Table of Permitted Principal Uses in § 334-21 of Article V.

There are two types of parks: manufactured home park - rental, and manufactured home park - condominium.

Each park must contain a minimum of 10 acres.

Each park must have a principal access to either an arterial or a major collector street. All-season safe sight distance in both directions must be attained at the street entrance.

In all parks, homes must either be skirted with suitable code-conforming materials approved by the Planning Board and anchored or placed on a permanent foundation. Only single-family manufactured homes are permitted on both types of parks.

The maximum density of homes allowed in a manufactured home park is determined by total lot area divided by the minimum building lot area as defined in Article VII, § 334-27.1B, e.g., if the parcel is 100 acres and 65 acres are dry area and less than 25% slopes, 65 units are permitted.

In all parks, each home must be placed on a parcel of land within a park, known as a "space," with a minimum area of 15,000 square feet and with a minimum contiguous frontage of 100 feet along a private road within the park. Only one home may be placed on each space. Each space shall be permanently delineated on the approved site plan. The Planning Board may make reasonable requirements for the location of the placement of homes on a space, including reasonable setback requirements.

The difference between the total of the area of the manufactured home park and the total area of all home lots shall be set aside as common open space to be used for recreation and/or common land purposes.

All on-site facilities (such as roadways, driveways, sewers and drainage systems) shall not be dedicated to the Town unless the Planning Board expressly determines that such a dedication is in the best interests of the Town. On-site facilities shall be constructed to meet Town standards.

All subsurface sewage disposal and water supply requirements for individual or community systems shall be compiled with, or Town water and sewer shall be provided. Community wells and septic disposal systems shall not be located on the required minimum space for the mobile home. Septic disposal areas do not count towards the minimum required open space.

Manufactured housing park developments shall be adequately screened/buffered from abutting residential uses. A permanent buffer area, not less than 50 feet wide, shall be required and approved by the Planning Board for adequacy. The Planning Board shall also make reasonable requirements to ensure that the screen/buffer area will be permanently maintained and preserved.

Two off-street parking spaces must be provided for each space.

All manufactured homes must comply with BOCA and current FHA manufactured home standards.

A property owner who is building or rebuilding a home may obtain a permit from the Zoning Administrator to place a manufactured home on the lot where the home is being built or rebuilt for the property owner and his household to occupy as a temporary residence during construction.

The permit shall be issued for a period not greater than one year, to expire 30 days after issuance of a certificate of occupancy for the home. The Zoning Administrator may, for good and sufficient cause, grant the property owner a six-month extension of the permit. The manufactured home must be removed from the property within 60 days of occupancy of the principal structure (house).

Before receiving the permit, the property owner shall obtain a building permit for the home and shall provide the Zoning Administrator with reasonable assurances that construction will be completed within one year.

A person, partnership or corporation engaged in construction or development may obtain a permit from the Zoning Administrator to place one or more manufactured homes or trailers for nonresidential uses on the construction site for use as office space, storage or sanitary or rest facilities for employees. Such permit shall be issued for an initial period not to exceed one year and may be extended for six-month periods until completion of construction or development.

Manufactured homes may not be stored on land within the Town, except as approved by the Planning Board in accordance with site plan requirements. This provision shall not apply to review homes placed on land in accordance with this article.

No manufactured home may be moved into the Town of Hudson or be placed on a lot unless it has been issued a permit from the Building Inspector.
