The applicant is requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow for the continued use
of a double -wide manufactured home which was recently placed on the R-2 zoned
property located at 17607 Elvin Road. The property comprises a 4.22 acre tract
and is located within the City's Extra -Territorial Zoning Jurisdiction (ETJ). The
applicant proposes not to construct a garage at this time, however plans to build
one the property in the future.
The applicant has cited a 36' x 60' foot double -wide manufactured home in the
southern portion of the property. Access to the lot is from Elvin Road just west of
Dent Road. The manufactured home will be located approximately 280 feet from
the front (north) property line. There is ample setback from the rear (south) and
along both side property lines. The existing manufactured home complies with all
ordinance required setbacks and provides ample room for decks, porches, steps
etc. The applicant notes that the proposed garage will be 26' x 40' foot and

The existing manufactured home must comply with the following minimum siting
standards as per Section 36-254(d)(5) of the City's Zoning Ordinance:
a. A pitched roof of three (3) in twelve (12) or fourteen (14) degrees or greater.
b. Removal of all transport elements.
c. Permanent foundation.
d. Exterior wall finished so as to be compatible with the neighborhood.
e. Orientation compatible with placement of adjacent structures.
f. Underpinning with permanent materials.
g. All homes shall be multi -sectional.
h. Off-street parking per single-family dwelling standard.
The applicant provided responses and additional information to all issues raised
during staffs review of the application. To staff's knowledge, there are no
outstanding issues. The applicant is requesting no variances at this time.
Staff is supportive of the requested conditional use permit to allow the continued
use of the manufactured home located at 17607 Elvin Road. Staff views the
request is reasonable. Staff does not feel that the existing location of the
manufactured home will be out of character within the overall area. There is a
single -wide manufactured home located at 17704 Elvin Road two lots to the east,
another single -wide manufactured home to the west at 17523 Elvin Road with
additional single -wide manufactured homes existing to the east. Staff feels that
the recently placed manufactured home will have no adverse impact on the general
area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the requested Conditional Use Permit to allow for
the continued use of the double -wide manufactured home subject to the following
conditions:
1. Compliance with the comments and conditions noted in paragraphs D and E,
and the staff analysis, of the agenda staff report.
2. Compliance with the manufactured home minimum siting standards as noted
in Section 36-254(d)(5) of the code.
