The single-family residential district is established to provide for the development of single-family residential use and to prohibit the development of incompatible uses that are detrimental to the residential environment. (Ord. 2005-10, 1-3-2006)

In an R1 single-family residential district, land may be used and buildings and structures may be erected, maintained and used if they are arranged, intended or designed for the following uses:

Accessory uses, buildings and structures if they are clearly incidental to a permitted use and when placed upon the same lot or parcel with a permitted use.

Agricultural and horticultural uses for domestic purposes.

Home occupations.

Manufactured homes subject to the following requirements:

   A.   Any manufactured home must have a manufacture date after 1980, and must pass a safety inspection by a certified building inspector. A manufactured home must have an application for conversion to real property filed with the county assessors office prior to issuance of a certificate of occupancy.

   B.   Any manufactured home located on a lot shall comply with all United States of America department of housing and urban development standards in effect for the year of the manufacture of the mobile home in addition to the requirements of any other state or county regulation.

   C.   A manufactured home shall be placed on a permanent foundation, consistent with the Lincoln County building code and the international building code.

      1.   The manufactured home shall:

   a. Be permanently affixed to a residential lot.

   b. Have exterior siding and roofing which is similar in color, material and appearance to the exterior siding and roofing primarily used on other single-family residential dwellings in the immediate vicinity of the manufactured home, as established by the governing body.

   c. Consist of at least nine hundred fifty (950) square feet of living area.

      2.   If the manufactured home has an elevated foundation, the foundation is to be masked architecturally by raising the adjacent ground elevation to within eight inches (8") of the finish floor elevation as viewed from the street, or by other methods approved by the building department.

   D.   Before the building department issues a permit to place a manufactured home on a lot pursuant to this section, other than a new manufactured home, the owner must surrender the certificate of ownership to the manufactured housing division of the department of business and industry. The division shall provide proof of surrender to the owner who must submit that proof to the building department.

   E.   The provisions of this section do not abrogate a recorded restrictive covenant prohibiting manufactured homes nor do the provisions apply within the boundaries of a historic district established pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 384.005 or 384.100. An application to place a manufactured home on a residential lot pursuant to this section constitutes an attestation by the owner of the lot that the placement complies with all covenants, conditions and restrictions placed on the lot and that the lot is not located within a historic district.
