PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: None. BACKGROUND: than twenty-four (24) feet in width and thirty- minimum 864 sq. ft. manufactured residential structure. The current minimum size and structure dimensions limits the ability to place different sized manufactured and modular homes on single family lots even when they are built to HUD and IBC standards. Manufactured homes have evolved in the last several years, resulting in a multitude of residences that are wholly or partially constructed in a factory, which includes manufactured homes, modular homes, panelized homes, and pre-cut homes. Manufactured homes are constructed to HUD standards; however, the other types of factory-built homes are often built to standard building codes adopted by the State of Colorado specifically for residences constructed in a factory. These homes are required to be placed o placement standards, Section 17-4-11 of the Pueblo Municipal Code. Current demand trends show a need for smaller, affordable, and alternate designs in this building type. Increased flexibility in the code allows the Planning Department the tools to work with developers to increase housing stock while maintaining appropriate design standards. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: There are no financial implications for the City. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their March 13, 2024, Regular Meeting, voted 7-0 to recommend approval. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission Public Hearing by publication of the proposed amendment fifteen (15) days prior to the Public Hearing. ALTERNATIVES: If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, Section 17-2-2 (84), relating to the use definition of Manufactured Home, one-family, will remain. Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning Commission for consideration of proposed modifications. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of the Ordinance.
