17.38.010 Required to be a PUD.
A. Every mobile home park which is lawfully in existence within the city or its urban growth area on the effective date of the ordinance codified in this chapter shall become a PUD, and shall be identified in Appendix Chapter P as such.
B. Every mobile home park proposal shall require the applicant to submit such proposal for approval consistent with the requirements and criteria of Chapter 17.39 CMC, Planned Unit Development (PUD); provided, the creation of additional mobile home pads within an existing parcel approved as a mobile home park, and which pads are consistent with all development requirements of this title, may be permitted by the DRC as an alteration of an existing mobile home park. [Ord. 769B § 20, 2004; Ord. 720B § 1, 2002.]
17.38.020 Development standards applicable to MHP proposals.
In addition to all applicable requirements of this title, a mobile home park proposal shall also be consistent with all development standards specified in Appendix Chapter V and the development engineering standards. Relief from the development standards may be considered by the planning commission for cause. Such relief must be requested in a variance application, and cause must be demonstrated by the applicant.

Any subsequent development or use of such property shall be consistent with requirements of the underlying zone.
B. The owner or operator of a mobile home park may request a discontinuance of such park for more than 30 days for cause. Such a request must be submitted to the DRC prior to the date of discontinuance. The DRC shall not unreasonably withhold approval of such a request.
C. Nothing herein shall preclude an applicant from submitting substantially the same, or a different, request for a mobile home park after a discontinuance. Such a proposal shall be submitted as a new PUD application consistent with this chapter. [Ord. 720B § 1, 2002.]
