Since moved buildings have often been constructed in a time period prior to the adoption of a building code, and are frequently left in an unsafe and unattractive condition, extra precautions shall be taken to insure that the buildings meet the code and that the appearance of the premises is in keeping with buildings in the surrounding area.

A permit shall not be issued for the moving of any building that has had prior use, from one site within the city to another site within the City or from a site outside of the City to a site within the City without a pre-inspection being made of the building by the Building Official prior to moving. The fee for conducting a pre-inspection shall be established by resolution of the City Council. The following information shall be filed with the Building Official at the time the application is made:

1. Location and address of the old and new site.
2. Plan of the new location, showing adjacent lots on all sides of the property and indicating all structures and improvements on the lots.
3. Plans and specifications for the proposed improvements at the new location, including plans for landscaping.
4. Photographs of the buildings to be moved.

Before a permit to move a building may be granted, the applicant shall post a bond sufficient to cover costs of improvements as set forth in the city ordinances.

Moved buildings must comply in every way with this ordinance and the requirements of the adopted building codes.

Payson City allows manufactured housing in accordance with Utah State law and specifically Utah Code § 10-9a-514 (1953 as amended).

In all cases, manufactured housing shall be consistent with, and satisfy all of the requirements of the zone in which the unit is proposed to be located.
