No:0
Director of Development Services, Larry Kirch stated the city recently adopted new building
codes and stated other cities regulate additions to these park models to ensure health and
safety matter to the public are considered. The city originally had no limit to the square footage
an addition could create until recently when the city limited it to 400 square feet.Because of the
small lots, the "Industry" experts suggested the city go with a percentage of lot coverage since
the lots sizes vary so considerably. They are recommending a total lot coverage of 48%.
They are looking for what direction the council would like to consider when applications come in
to increase the livable square footage of these types of park models.
1. Staff would like to set a minimal set -back of 5 feet.
2. There be an age limit for any model being brought into the city into one of the parks.
3. One of the zoning district would need to be updated.
City of Apache Junction, Arizona Page

affixing park models to the land and acquiring a mortgage and then un-affixing the park model.
