A. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Waive further reading and pass to second reading.
B. DISCUSSION:
These proposed Amendments and Zone Changes were reviewed and unanimously
recommended for approval by the Planning Commission (5-0) at the meeting
of May 20, 1981 . The Amendments and Zone Changes are to implement S.B. 1960.
The Legislation in question precludes Cities from prohibiting manufactured
(mobile) homes from lots zoned for single family dwelling units. The
Legislation provided Cities with the option of either designating every
R-1 lot for mobile home use, designating certain R-1 lots for mobile home
use or redesignating areas currently zoned for R-1 to a combination Single
Family/Mobile Home use. The Commission chose the third option. In addition,
the Commission elected to amend the Municipal Code to allow conventionally
built single family dwelling units on lots currently zoned for mobile home
use only.
This Zone Change will have little, if any, effect on exising mobile home
parks or developed mobile home subdivisions.
The new zoning designation will be R-1-M (Conventional Single Family/Mobile
Home Residential District) and will cover all areas currently zoned R-M in
Palm Desert and those areas currently zoned R-1 12,000 in Riverside County
but, which have received preannexation zoning of RM.
The Zoning Ordinance text amendments do the following:
1 . Redefine Mobile Home to coincide with the State
definition; and
2. Change the wording of Chapter 25.22 (RM-Mobile Home
Park and Mobile Home Subdivision Residential District)
to reflect the integration of conventional single
family dwelling units and mobile homes.

B. DISCUSSION (CONTINUED)
Commissioner Kryder was concerned that these amendments would not
implement the intent of S.B. 1960. Staff and Commissioner Berkey in-
dicated that the Department of Housing and Community Development and
the Legislative Counsel believe such zoning as proposed, would meet
S.B. 1960 requirements if conventional single family units are
permitted in the zones. In addition, a representative from Western
Manufactured Housing Institute stated that the proposed method does
implement S.B. 1960, although the method is not exactly what they •had
in mind when pushing the legislation.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. Case Nos. ZOA 07-81 and C/Z 04-81 - CITY OF PALM DESERT, Applicant
Request for consideration of an amendment to the Palm Desert
Zoning Ordinance, amending Chapter 25.04 and Chapter 25.22
pertaining to the integration of single family dwelling units
and mobile homes.
Mr. DosSantos presented this case stating that this amendment is to implement
Senate Bill 1960, which precludes cities from prohibiting manufactured homes on
permanent foundations, in areas zoned for single family units. He stated that
Commission requested redesignation of areas currently zoned mobile home and some
areas currently zoned single family to a combined Conventional Single Family/Mobile
Home zone (R-1-M) . He reviewed the areas affected and indicated that this amendment
would implement SB 1960 according to the Department of Housing and Community Develop-
ment and Western Manufactured Housing Institute. Staff recommended approval .
Commissioner Kryder was still concerned whether or not this amendment would
implement SB 1960. He felt that the intent was to allow Mobile Homes in single
family lots. Mr. DosSantos stated that allowing integration of single family homes
in the RM zone would meet the intent.
Commissioner Kryder referred to a report from the Legislative Counsel and
asked if this proposed method would be meeting their intent. Commissioner Berkey
read the report from the Legislative Counsel and clarified that the proposed method
would implement SB 1960.

VI. PUBLIC HEARINGS (cont. )

that he felt the intent was to allow mobile home owners to own their lot. Commis-
sioner Kryder disagreed.

amendment would implement the intent.
Chairman Miller opened the Public Hearing and asked if anyone present wished
to speak in FAVOR or OPPOSITION to this case. There being none, the Public Hearing

CITY OF PALM DESERT
STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Department of Environmental Services
SUBJECT: Mobile Homes: Zoning and Implementation of S.B. 1960
DATE: April 15, 1981
Recently Governor Brown signed S.B. 1960 which deals with mobile home .zoning and
which must be implemented by July 1, 1981.
Essentially, S.B. 1960 precludes cities from prohibiting mobile homes on permanent
foundation in areas zoned for single family dwellings. Alternatively, a city may
designate lots zoned for single family dwellings for mobile homes when the lots are
determined to be compatible for said mobile home use.
The legislation does not indicate to what extent a city must provide for use of a
mobile home or what proportion of the housing stock mobile homes should be. Mobile
homes are a significant proportion of the housing within Palm Desert's Planning
area. The attached chart, which was prepared last September for Commission consi-
deration, indicates the housing stock mix as it currently exists and the housing
stock mix at full development. At full development mobile homes will be over 17%
of the total housing stock. This proportion is based on current trends being con-
tinued and if the mobile home developments being proposed by the north sphere
landowners seeking annexation to the city are apparoved. Mobile homes are currently
permitted in RM zones by conditional use permit.
As described below, there are three viable alternatives in implementing S.B. 1960.
1) Permit mobile homes in all single family zones. Under this option mobile homes
will be permitted in all zones which permits conventional single family homes.
Mobile homes placed in said zones could be subject to the same minimum develop-
ment standards to which a conventional single family residential dwelling on
the same lot would be subject, including, but not limited to, building setbacks,
architectural and aesthetic requirements and minimum square footage requirements.
Mobile homes would 6e an additional permitted use within the zones under this
option.
2) Designate specific sites in sin le family zones for mobile homes. The City,
under this option, would designate certain lots currently zoned for single
family dwelling units for mobile home units, as well . Like the first option
these units will be subject to the development standards of the zoning district.
To implement this option a survey of vacant single family lots would need to
be completed with criteria developed to determine which lots will be allowed
to be developed with mobile homes. Under this option permitted uses would be
expanded on specific lots to include mobile homes.
3) Redesignate areas currently zoned for single family to mobile homes. Under
this option currently zoned single family areas would be rezoned to mobile
home subdivision. According to the Department of Housing and Community Develop-
ment such zoning will meet the requirements of the new statute only if conven-
tional single family structures are also allowed in such zones. The Legisla-
tive Counsel also believes that the establishment of a residential mobile home
subdivision district on land previously zoned for single family dwellings meet
the designation requirement of the legislation. To implement this option all
existing and future RM zones should be rezoned to R-1-M (Single Family Con-
ventional/Mobile Home Residential District) .
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Commission adopt option three and instruct staff to
commence the public hearing process to amend various sections of the zoning ordinance.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
STAFF REPORT
To: Planning Commission
Report on: Zoning Ordinance Amendment and Change of Zone regarding integration
of Mobile Homes and Single Family dwelling units.
Applicant: City of Palm Desert
Case Nos: ZOA 07-81 and C/Z 04-81
Date: May 20, 1981
I. REQUEST:
Consideration of an amendment to the Palm Desert Zoning Ordinance,
amending Chapter 25.04 and Chapter 25.22, pertaining to the integration
of Single Family dwelling units and Mobile Homes.
II. BACKGROUND:
A. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT:
The Director of Environmental Services has determined that the
proposed project is a Class V Categorical exemption and no further
environmental documentation is deemed necessary.
B. CASE INITIATION:
The Planning Commission at the meeting of April 15, 1981 , initiated
this amendment establishing this date for Public Hearing.
III. DISCUSSION:
This Ordinance Amendment and Change of Zone are proposed to implement
S.B. 1960, which essentially precludes cities from prohibiting Mobile
Homes on permanent foundations in areas zoned for single family units.
Three options to implement S.B. 1960 were identified and discussed on
April 15, 1981 . The Commission chose option three, which integrates
currently zoned RM (Mobile Home Residential Zones) districts with the
R-1 (Single Family) zones. The new zone will be designated R-1-M (Single
Family/Mobile Home Residential District).
Staff feels that the text amendments and Change of Zone will implement
the intent of S.B. 1960.
IV. STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff would recommend that the Planning Commission adopt Resolution
No.
"A Resolution of the Planning Commission of the
City of Palm Desert, California, amending various
sections of Chapter 25.04 (definitions) and Chapter
25.22 (RM - Mobile Home Park and Mobile Home Sub-
division Residential District) of the Municipal Code
and rezoning all RM zones to R-1-M (Single Family/
Mobile Home Residential District)".
PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO.

Mobile Home Subdivision Residential District) and a Change of Zone from RM to R-1-M
(Single Family/Mobile Home Residential District) for properties currently zoned
RM as depicted on the adopted zoning map of the City;
WHEREAS, said amendments have complied with the requirements of the
"City of Palm Desert Procedures to Implement the California Enviromental Quality
Act, Resolution No. 80-89" , in that the Director of Environmental Services has
determined that the project will not have a significant adverse impact on the
environment and is a Class V Categorical Exemption; and,

testimony and arguments, if any, of all interested persons desiring to be heard,

��� DATE
CITY OF PALM DESERT
STAFF REPORT
TO: Planning Commission
FROM: Department of Environmental Services
SUBJECT: Mobile Homes: Zoning and Implementation of S.B. 1960
DATE: April 15, 1981
Recently Governor Brown signed S.B. 1960 which deals with mobile home :zoning and
which must be implemented by July 1, 1981.
Essentially, S.B. 1960 precludes cities from prohibiting mobile homes on permanent
foundation in areas zoned for single family dwellings. Alternatively, a city may
designate lots zoned for single family dwellings for mobile homes when the lots are
determined to be compatible for said mobile home use.
The legislation does not indicate to what extent a city must provide for use of a
mobile home or what proportion of the housing stock mobile homes should be. Mobile
homes are a significant proportion of the housing within Palm Desert's Planning
area. The attached chart, which was prepared last September for Commission consi-
deration, indicates the housing stock mix as it currently exists and the housing
stock mix at full development. At full development mobile homes will be over 17%
of the total housing stock. This proportion is based on current trends being con-
tinued and if the mobile home developments being proposed by the north sphere
landowners seeking annexation to the city are apparoved. Mobile homes are currently
permitted in RM zones by conditional use permit.
As described below, there are three viable alternatives in implementing S.B. 1960.
1) Permit mobile homes in all single family zones. Under this option mobile homes
will be permitted in all zones which permits conventional single family homes.
Mobile homes placed in said zones could be subject to the same minimum develop-
ment standards to which a conventional single family residential dwelling on
the same lot would be subject, including, but not limited to, building setbacks,
architectural and aesthetic requirements and minimum square footage requirements.
Mobile homes would be an additional permitted use within the zones under this
option.
2) Designate specific sites in single family zones for mobile homes. The City,
under this option, would designate certain lots currently zoned for single
family dwelling units for mobile home units, as well . Like the first option
these units will be subject to the development standards of the zoning district.
To implement this option a survey of vacant single family lots would need to
be completed with criteria developed to determine which lots will be allowed
to be developed with mobile homes. Under this option permitted uses would be
expanded on specific lots to include mobile homes.
'f..
3) Redesignate areas currently zoned for single family to mobile homes. Under
this option currently zoned single family areas would be rezoned to mobile
home subdivision. According to the Department of Housing and Community Develop-
ment such zoning will meet the requirements of the new statute only if conven-
tional single family structures are also allowed in such zones. The Legisla-
tive Counsel also believes that the establishment of a residential mobile home
subdivision district on land previously zoned for single family dwellings meet
the designation requirement of the legislation. To implement this option all
existing and future RM zones should be rezoned to R-1-M (Single Family Con-
ventional/Mobile Home Residential District) .
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Commission adopt option three and instruct staff to
commence the public hearing process to amend various sections of the zoning ordinance.

TO: ALL INTERESTED PARTIES:

FROM: Carolyn. Burton, Deputy General Counsel i ! {
RE: Department's Legal Interpretation of SB 1960
In 1980 -the Legislature passed and Governor- Brown signed into law SB 1960
(Rains) which provides for mobilehomes in single family residential zones
. . (Chapter 1142, Statutes of 1980) . : Currently, many localities exclude
mobilehomes entirely, or restrict their location to mobilehome parks. This
new law, which will take effect on July 1, 1981 , assures that mobilehomes
will have a place in every California community.
In summary, the new statute precludes prohibition by a city or county of
installation of newer mobilehomes (built since 1974) which are installed on
permanent foundations on lots zoned for sinale-family residences.
Alternatively, the locality may designate sites for mobilehomes in single
family zones. The local jurisdiction may apply setback, sideyard, Darkinc,
and other development standards which it S:ould 'apply to a conventional 'house
on the same lot. Architectural standards may be applied to the mobilehome
which deal specifically with roof overhang, and roofing and siding
materials. Excerpts.. of the new law are attached.
A number of questions have arisen regarding the proper interpretation of
this law. These questions, and the legal interpretation of the Oepert;..ent
of Housing and Community Development follow.
1. Must mobilehomes neetinq the standards of the bill be allowed on
every lot in sing e ram? y zones?
Yes--except that the locality may designate specific sites in single family
zones for mobilehome use as an alternative approach. However, the number of
single family sites excluded from use by mobilehcmes is limited by several
considerations, most importantly, housing element requirements..
The first sentence of the new law is a general proscription against
proM biting mobilehomes (meeting the specified standard,) on lots zoned for
single family dwellings. However, the second sentence provides an
alternative approach: the city may designate lots zoned for single family
dwellings for mobilehome use, which lots are detrained to be comipatible for
mobilehome use. If a locality utilizes this approach and does designate
single family lots for nobilehome use, it is not re^,uired to allow
mobilehomes on every lot zoned single fame ly.
The empirical basis for determining the number of lots designated for
mobilehome use is in the locality's housing element. Statutory requirements
for a local housing element--whether prepared pursuant to Government Code
Section 65302(c) and the Housing Element Guidelines or the new Article 10.6,
commencing filth Section 65580, of the Government Code (AS 2853)--require a
locality to consider mobilehomes and provide adequate sites with zoning to
allow for mobilehones. To the extent that there is a need for low and
moderate inccme housing, and these needs are not being met through other
housing prograns, the locality must zone an amount of residential land for
mobilehomes commensurate with such need.
Furthermore, in order to withstand an equal protection challenge (see
questions 5 and 6 below) the locality should designate all lots which are
equally compatible for nobilehone use and be able to point to the
characteristics which distinguish lots which were designated from those lots
which were not. In practice, since all lots .in a zone will qenerally be
equally compatible for the placement of nobilehomes, mobilehomes should be
added as an allowable use for an entire single family residential zone.
.2. - does it mean that a locality may designate" lots "which
lots,. are determined to e compaL b e for suc mobs ehome use
The word "compatible" is not defined and, therefore, the locality may ,.
exercise its -own-judgment in determining compatibility. . However, there must
be a rational basis for this determination. In complying with this
provision, the local jurisdiction should establish the components for a""
compat.ibility standard and, prior to designating sinele family lots for
mobilehome use, determine that the lots meet this standard. The
jurisdiction nay wish to make findings to this effect.
Generally, sites will be compatible for mobilehome use if mobileh-ones- will
meet the existing zoning and subdivision requirements. The fear that the
Placement of a mobilehome on a lot might have a negative economic effect on
surrounding lots does not- mean that it is an incompatible land use.
Additional criteria that the city could consider in making the determination
are probably limited to architectural and historical factors. The litmus
Last would be that the mobilehome would appear "totally out of place" . -
Illustrative examples of mobilehome non-compatibility based on these
criteria might be in-fill lots in an historic- preservaticn area or an area
composed of Victorian-styled structures. These situations invoke both of
the criteria noted above. Other older neighborhoods composed of large
"o-story residences, although containing a variety of styles, might
likewise be architecturally incompatible for mobilehomes.
A word of caution, however. As the state of the art progresses, nobileh'os,.es
may be designed which will be totally compatible with 'Victorians or other
architectural types. i US, compatibility may be reduced to simply meeting
existing zoning and subdivision requirements. This standard provides the
necessary rational basis and is easy to apply. Since it also reflects the
subsequent requirement of the• statute . that the locality may subject the
.*•-+-r..�!!�W«engE�S�!+' +R �r9T*Tm^^ ry7 0-7 ....x-+.-....-.».+_..n--�.-r-r-...
' h
mobilehome to the same development standard's that apply to a conventional
single family dwelling, this standard would not be subject to legal
challenge.
3. Does the zonin for mobilehome parks or subdivisions comoly with
t e new awe
A locality may continue to zone for mobilehome parks or subdivisions.
However, such zoning will meet the requirements, of the new statute only if
conventional single family structures are also allowed in such zones. Where
such mobilehome park or subdivisions exclude conventional single family
residences, the locality would still be required to allow mobilehones .in' ..
single family zones or designate lots in single family zones for
mobilehomes.
4. What is the relationship between the new law and the hlobilehome
Parks Act wit respect to use permits!
The Mob.ilehome Parks Act sets standards for the design and use of mobilehone .
parks and provides for state or local enforcement. Health and Safety Code
Section 18300(g)(3) states that the provisions therein do not prevent a
jurisdiction from requiring a use permit for a mobilehome which is installed
outside of a mobilehome park.
While SB 1960 did not explicitly repeal Section 18300(g)(3), a local
requirement of a use permit for a mobileho.^e in a single family residential
zone is •inconsistent with the new law. The first sentence of the new
statute precludes a locality from prohibiting mobilehomes on lots in single
family zones. Requiring a use permit implies 'possible prohibition of toe
mobilehome use since the request for a permit could be denied. Therefore, .
subsequent to the passage of SB 1950, a use permit for a mobilehone should
not be required. This is likewise true if the locality opts for the
alternative of designating single family lots for -obilehome use. Once the
site has been designated, there is no need for a use permit.. If the pen it
were granted, it would be superfluous; if the per were denied, the .
locality would be in violation of the statute.
;With respect to conditional use permits , conditions relating to factors
other than the acttnat the structure is a mobilehome can be required if
such conditions are likewise applied to conventional construction. This is
consistent with the express statement that mobilehones may be subjected to
the same development standards as are placed on conventional single family
dwellings.
5. ' Does the new statute require a city or ccunty to "spot zone"?
"Spot zoning" is the practice of restricting a ,small parcel as ar, "island"
and giving it less rights than surrounding properti-s where no rational
reason e:tlsts for such a restriction. The classification :.,ould be
discriminatory, i .e. , .in violation of the e(TUai pr0'action clause_.
property that is favored by allowing additi0naI uses is not spot zoning
since the property has not been disco m"nated against.
_3_
The new saw does not intend for localities to designate lots in single
family zones exclusively for mobilehomre 'use. Sites identified for
mobilehome use should be available for conventional construction as well .
In effect, the permitted uses on the property have been expanded to include
mobilehomes. The property has therefore been treated favorably by allowing
an additional use, and not discriminated against. This is not spot zoning.
6. ' Can the property owner whose single family lot is not zoned `or
moor ehomes a ege discrimination.
A property o.mer who wants to place a mobilehome on a lot where such use is
prohibited, could argue that the property has been discriminated against . if
other, similarly situated properties, were designated for mobilehome use.
While a locality has a great deal of discretion' in exercising its zoning
authority, the judicial test for determining ;inether a zoning classification
violates equal protection standards 'is -as_ follows:-.:
1 . The property owner challenging the regulation must demonstrate
that his or her property stands in precisely the same relationship
as those properties receiving preferential treatment ( i .e:, those
where mobilehcmes are. an add ition_al• use); and,
2. The more narrow zoning classification must not have been made on,
an arbitrary basis, but rather must be based upon some distinction
which justifies the differential treatment,
Meeting this standard should not be a problem for a locality in complying
with the new law since this is the same standard that must be applied in
traditional zoning practices. It simply means that the designation of sites
for mobilehome use must have some rational basis. This basis will probably
be the same as. the locality's determination of compatibility. For example,
if very narrow in-fill lots in urban areas are rejected for mobilehome use
as not "compatible" (because of the need for a larger lot) , the rational
basis test :mould be meta On the other hand, in suburban residential areas
where there is large lot zoni,hg,, there may be no basis for determining one
lot is compatible, another is not. In this situation , the most appropriate
way to designate lots for mobilehome use may be the adoption of' a mobilehome
overlay permitting mobilehomes on all ' lots in the particular single family
zone. . .
7. Does the new law nullify covenants, conditions and restrictions on
property 1•,mcn prohibits crops ieh-,4A%,r
No. Restrictive covenants prohibiting imobilehcm es on residential lots
(entered into either before or after passage of the bill ) are not directly
affected by S3 1960. The courts have upheld covenants restricting the use
of property in the face of more expansive zoning requirements. (See
Legislative Counsel Opinion No. 10044, 11/1.7/0-0, affirming this view. )
However, the department has issued an opinion indicating that restrictive
covenants prohibiting mobilehomes lay be unenforceable .and that, S3' 19o0 adds
additional support for this view.

Courts havz refused to enforce restrictive covenants :There, due to "changed
conditions", it would be oppressive and inequitable to the property owner
occur where a property is restricted to
to do so. For example, this might
. single family residential use and; over a period of years, the neighborhood ,
has changed from residential to commercial . Maintaining the lot as
residential no longer benefits surrounding properties (for whose protection
the covenant was entered into in the first. place) and imposes a hardship on
the owner of the restricted property. Rezoning of. surrounding areas to
come ercial is one of the factors of "changed conditions" that a court could
consider in deciding whether or not to enforce the restriction. By analogy,
the rezoning of a "compatible" area to allow mobilehomes pursuant to SB
1960, could be a factor used by a court to determine whether changed
conditions render a restriction against mobilehomes unenforceable. The new'
law is also evidence that such restrictions are contrary to public policy, a .
factor to be considered by the court `in deciding whether a restriction
should be enforced.
Covenants prohibiting mob ilehomes may also. be narrowly interpret ed, by the.
courts to apply only to older mobilehomes rather than newer
mobilei�omes-=Many of which are visually indistinguishable from
conventionally-constructed homes'. This interpretation would be consistent with a general judicial rule to interpret such restrictions in a manner
trhich limits encumbrances on property. [.The department's legal opinion
analyzing the enforcability of these covenants is available upon request.]
S. Does the new statute apply to charter cities and counties?
Yes. State zoning law only applies to general laa cities and counties
unless there -is specific language applying the provision to charter
jurisdictions. (See, for example, Government Code Sections 65804 and
65918. ) The new law .contains such a provision, explicitly applying it to
charter cities and counties.

Dear Planning Director:
EgVI YN,,MENTf:L SERVICES
ci i n+ D-S RT
On September 26, 1980, Senate Bill 1960 w11 11F d into law by the Governor.
A copy of that bill is attached for your review. It will have an effect upon you
because it provides as follows:
1. that implementation occur on or before July 1, 1981;
2. that your ordinances may not prohibit a HUD Code mobilehome from being
installed on a permanent foundation in areas zoned for single family
dwellings;
3. that, in addition, you may designate lots zoned for single family
dwellings for mobilehomes when the lots are determined to be compatible
for such mobilehome use;
4. that you may subject the mobilehome and lot to the same development
standards to which a conventional single family residential dwelling on
the same lot would be subject;
5. that any architectural requirements imposed on the mobilehome structure
itself shall be limited to its roof overhang, roofing materlal_And siding
material--
that in no case may local government apply a development standard
has the effect of precluding mobilehomes from being installed as permanegt
resident a un is on single lots.
The Western Manufactured Housing Institute (WMHI) , in conjunction with the
California Manufactured Housing Association (CMHA), wants to assist local juris-
dictions in providing new opportunities for affordable housing through the use of
HUD Code homes. We have a hot line to help you. Call our hotline phone collect:
(714) 630-1443, so that we can help refer you to other local jurisdictions that
are implementing SB 1960.
There are several ways to implement SB 1960. You may wish to modify your
typical regulations for site plan review; director review and approval; zoning
administration permit review; or use permits to achieve implementation. Place-
ment of mobilehomes on single lots is exempt from the Environmental Review Process.
See CEQUA Section 15103. Several jurisdictions have implemented SB 1960 with this
type of procedure. See attached examples.
Please send us a copy of your regulations so we can share them with other
local governments who have questions in implementing SB 1960.
Sincerely
Howard J. Snider, President

MOBILEHOMES ON PRIVATE LOTS
(Effective 4-18-80)
A mobilehome, under certain conditions, may be placed on a foundation system
on a private lot in the unincorporated area of the County of San Diego where-
ever -single-family dwellings are permitted.
A mobilehome on a foundation system is permitted on a private lot upon
issuance of a minor use permit by the Zoning Administrator.
The Zoning. Administrator must hold a public hearing on the application. Notice
of hearing is sent to owners of property within 300 feet of the applicant's
property. The fee for the minor use permit is $220 and processing time is
normally 45-60 days. Application forms for minor use permits can be obtained
at any of the offices listed above.
MINOR USE PERMIT REQUIREMENTS
Section 8001 of the County Zoning Ordinance specifies the following requirements
for a mobilehome to be placed on a permanent foundation on a private lot.
Eligibility. A mobilehome shall not be eligible unless it:
1) . was constructed after September 15, 1971, and was issued on insignia of
approval by the California Department of Housing and Community Development
or was constructed after July 1, 1976, and was issued an insignia of
approval by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and
2) has not been altered in violation of applicable codes.
Criteria. The mobilehome shall: __ _.. . .
1) Be occupied only as a Residential Use Type..
2) Be subject to all provisions of The Zoning Ordinance applicable to
residential structures.
3) Be attached to a permanent foundation system in compliance with all
applicable building regulations.
4) Have a minimum width of 20 feet.
5) Be covered with an exterior material customarily used on conventional
dwellings and approved by the Zoning Administrator. The exterior
covering material shall extend to the ground, except that when a solid
concrete or masonry perimeter foundation is used, the exterior covering
material need not extend below the top of the foundation.

6) Have a roof with a pitch of not less than two (2) inch vertical rise for
each 12 inches of horizontal run and consisting of shingles or other
material customarily used for conventional dwellings and approved by
the Zoning Administrator.
7) The mobilehome may be required to have porches and eaves, or roofs
with eaves when, in the opinion of the Zoning Administrator it is
necessary to make it compatible with the dwellings in the area.
Modification of Criteria. No modification may be granted from paragraphs
1-6 above.
Plot Plan and Information needed -for the minor use permit application shall
be provided as indicated on page 4 of this form.
CONSTRUCTION PERMIT REQUIREMENTS
After issuance of a minor use permit, construction permits must be processed
and issued prior to placing of the mobilehome on the lot. Issuance of the
construction permits requires that the applicant:
1) Comply with all the conditions of the minor use. permit.
2) Obtain a grading permit (required if more than 200 cubic yards of earth
will be moved or if a cut or fill depth exceeds five feet) . Any fill
over a foot in depth will require a compaction report by a registered
civil engineer certifying the fill is compacted to a minimum of 90%.
Rough grading approval must be obtained and compaction reports submitted
before the site construction permit can be issued.
3) Make application for approval of a septic tank permit from the Health
Department if the property will not be served by a public sewer.
(A percolation test by a registered civil engineer is required.)
4) If the property is in school districts which require collection of
school fees at issuance of the construction permit, the applicant
is to have the school district complete form DPL #406, Certification
of Compliance with School Facilities, and return it to the Department
of Planning and Land Use.
;) The applicant shall comply with all the requirements of Section 18551(a)
of the State Health and Safety Code.
6) Obtain plan approval of the foundation system.

Foundation System: Title 2S specifies regulations for the mobilehome foundation
system. These regulations provide:
1) Foundation System definition - "A foundation system is an assembly of materials
constructed below, or partly below grade, not intended to be removed from its
installation site, which is designed to support the structure and engineered
to resist the imposition of external natural forces."
2) That mobilehome foundation systems be designed in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 29 of the Uniform Building Code, 1979 Edition, and local
soil conditions. Design conditions for roof, wind, and seismic loads applicable
to permanent building foundations shall be applicable to the mobilehome
foundation system.
3) The mobilehome shall be installed in accordance with installation instructions
provided by:
a) The manufacturer of the mobilehome, or,
b) A California licensed architect or engineer for an individual mobilehome
where manufacturer's installation instructions are not available. .
4) That both the foundation system and connection of the mobilehome to the
foundation system shall be 'capable of withstanding the design loads and
concentrated loads identified in the installation instructions.
5) A foundation system plan shall be provided in addition to the installation
instructions. The foundation system plan may be:
a) Provided by the mobilehome manufacturer either as a part of, or separate
from, the installation instructions.
b) Provided by the installation contractor.
c) Required to be signed by a California licensed architect or engineer.
6) A foundation system plan approved by the California Department of Housing
and Community Development will be accepted.
Utility Connections. The mobilehome electrical, gas; water and drain connections
shall be made permanent in a manner applicable to permanent buildings. Gas shutoff
valves, meters and regulators shall not be located beneath the mobilehome.
SURRENDER OF REGISTRATION
Prior to occupancy, the owner shall request a certification from the Department of
Planning and Land Use that a certificate of occupancy be issued pursuant to
Section 18551 (b) (2) of the California Health and Safety Code. Thereafter, for an
existing mobilehome any vehicle license plate, certificate of ownership and
certificate of registration issued by a State agency is to be surrendered to the
appropriate state agencies via the Department of Planning and Land Use.
Where the mobilehome is new and never has been registered with DMV, a statement to
that effect from the dealer selling the mobilehome shall be submitted to the county.
Mobilehome Taxation. Mobilehomes placed on a permanent foundation in compliance
with all regulations become exempt from vehicle license fees and become subject to
property tax laws. Such mobilehomes become eligible for exemptions.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SR 1960, Rains. Zoning: mobilehomes.
Existing law does not preclude a city, including a charter city,
county,or city and county from prohibiting the installation of certain
mobilehomes on foundation systems on lots zoned for single-family
dwellings.
This bill would make such a prohibition, but would specify that
i such installation may be subject to certain other requirements
j applicable to conventionally constructed single-family residential
dwellings.However,any architectural requirements imposed on the
i mobilehome structure itself would be limited to roof overhang,
roofing material, and siding material. It would permit the
designation of lots for such use within single-family zones in a
prescribed manner. It would make a specified finding and
i declaration.
I This bill would become operative July 1, 1981. i
The people of the State of California do enact as follorvS.

manufactured housing, which includes mobilehomes, offers
Californians an additional opportunity to own and live in decent, I
safe, and affordable housing on a permanent basis. .

UNANSWERED QUESTIONS
1. Are rural agricultural and conservation zone districts
which provide for single-family dwelling units to be
considered "lots zoned for single-family dwellings"?
2. To what extent must we provide for .use of mobilehomes
throughout a jurisdiction? Is there to be some propor-
tion of single-family areas throughout the city and
county that must provide for the use of mobilehomes?
3. what happens after July 1, 1980 if we do nothing? Are
mobilehomes automatically permitted?
�I
4 . Will deed restrictions override zone provisions for the
use of mobilehomes on single-family lots?
ATTACHMENT #3
IMPLEMENTATION STEPS NOW BEING
CONSIDERED BY THE COU14TY
The County currently provides for the use of mobilehomes on
independent lots within fixed zones (outside community plan
areas) as follows:
DL, Desert Living One mobilehome on a minimum
DA, Desert Agriculture 2� acre parcel.
A-1, Light Agriculture One to three mobilehomes
A-2, Heavy Agriculture minimum 5 acres for each
mobilehome.
R-1-DM, Single-Family Single-Family neighborhood
Desert Mobile for the exclusive use of
mobilehomes.
In areas covered by community plans the County currently
provides for the use of mobilehomes on independent lots
as follows:
Independent Mobilehome Individual mobilehomes on
Building Type individual lots.
Mobilehome Neighborhood Residential neighborhoods for
Building Type the exclusive use of mobilehomes.
County Planning Staff is considering recommending that we imple-
ment SB1960 by using the community plan process to define where
each community will provide for the use of mobilehomes through the
community's selection of the Independent Mobilehome and Mobile-
home Neighborhood Building Types.
Areas which are not the subject of a community plan will be
given the option of applying for a change of zone to two new
zone districts: "R-1-M" , Single-Family Mobile a "R-1-EM" , Single-
Family Exclusive Mobile.
R-1-M, Single-Family Mobile Residential neighborhoods where
mobilehomes as well as "stick-
built" are permitted.
R-1-EM, Single-Family Residential neighborhoods for
Exclusive Mobile exclusive use of mobilehomes.

Re: Mobilehomes in Single-Family Zones
SB 1960 -(Rains) - Chapter 1142, 1980 Statutes
The purpose of this memo is to review several of the most commonly asked questions
about SB 1960 (Rains) (Chapter 1142 of the 1980 Statutes) and to offer you oui
answers. To facilitate this exercise, we have separated the Government Code
section added by SB 1960 into its component parts.
Part One
"A city, including a charter city, county, or city and county shall not prohibit
the installation of mobilehomes certified under the -National Mobile Home Con-
struction and Safety Standards Act of 1974 (42 D.S.C. Section 5401, et seq.) on
a foundation system, pursuant to Section 18551 of the Health and Safety Code on
lots zoned for single-family dwellings." (1st sentence of Gov.C. 565852.3)
I. Does the legislation apply to a charter city?
Chapter 1142 adds Section 65852.3 to Chapter 4 of the Planning and Zoning Law
(Government Code Section 65800 et seq.) . Section 65803 of that chapter specifically
states that the provisions of the chapter do not apply to chartered cities. How-
ever, the new Government Code Section 65852.3 purports to make its terms applicable
to charter cities. As to matters which are of statewide concern, charter cities
are subject to general state laws if it is the _intent and purpose of such laws to
occupy the field of the exclusion of municipal regulations. (Bishop v. Ci�_;7 of San
Jose, (1969) 1 Cal. 3d 56, 61-62) However, whether a particular subject has been
"preempted" by state regulation is a question to be answered by judicial inter-
pretation of the municipal affairs doctrine of the California Constitution (Cal.
Const. Article XI, Section 7) . In exercising this function, the courts give great
weight_ to t%e purpose of the Legislature in enacting laws which disclose an intent
to preempt the :field to the exclusion of local reguations. However, the fact,
standing alone, that the Legislature has attempted to deal with a particular subject
on a statewide basis is not determinative of the issue. ". . . the Legislature is
empowered neither to determine what constitutes a municipal affair nor to change
such an affair into a matter of statewide concern." (Bishop v. City of San .Jose,
(1969) 1 Cal. 3d 56, 63)
,,.^.• -..•J '._+...: --_._L_L:.F Et!ONt 5EPri E'__ 9d."-5 ..�:.' .: ...<
The answer to this question, then, will be found ultimately after court inter -
pretation of Section 65852.3, Section 65803 and the effect of the Legislature's
.intent in purporting to make applicable Section 65852.3 to charter cities.
2. Which mobilehomes are certified under the National Mobile Home Construction
and Safety Standards Act of 1974?
All mobilehomes constructed and/or purchased after October, 1976.
Does the placement of a mobilehome on a foundation system require a building
permit?
Yes. Health and Safety Code Section 18551 requires the State Department of Housing
and Community Development to establish regulations for mobilehome foundation systems.
Section 18551 requires the mobilehome owner,. prior to installation of a mobilehome
on' s foundation system to obtain a building permit.
Part Two
"However, a city, including a charter city, county, or city and county may designate
lots zoned for single-family dwellings for mobilehomes as described in this section,
which lots are determined to be compatible for such mobilehome use."
4.; Is the authority granted by Part Two an alternative to the general proscription
in Part One?
No. Part Two was added to the legislation during the final legislative debate on the
bill in response to strong local government opposition to the rigid mandate of the
first sentence of the new Government Code section. The intent of the addition was
to give local governments flexibility in carrying out the bill's purpose: to en-
courage the use of mobilehomes on permanent foundations as an alternative to stick-
built housing. Part One's general proscription to local governments is qualified
by Part Two's enabling language. Although Part One precludes a city from prohibiting
the placement of a mobilehome on a permanent foundation on a lot zoned for a single-
family dwelling, Part Two authorizes a city to designate on which lots zoned for
single-family dwellings the placement may occur and thus comply with the legislation.
What is meant by "compatible"?
"Compatible" is not defined by the legislation. There was no discussion of its mean-
ing by either the Legislature or the bill' s sponsors (Western Manufactured Housing
Association, Department of Housing and Community Development) .
6J deter How is a lot detemined to be "compatible"?
Again, neither the legislation nor the Legislature has provided guidance. An analo-
gous city determination may be the consideration of compatibility on a conditional
use permit. Is the use "compatible" with the surrounding uses? However, it was
not the intent of the bill's drafters to authorize a city to require a conditional
use permit for the placement of a mobilehome on a perment foundation.
7. If a lot is designated for a mobilehome on a permanent foundation, may a con-
ventionally-constructed home be placed on the lot?
Yes. The designation authorized by Part Two contemplates identification of the
mobilehome use as a "permitted use" on lots so designated. Other "permitted uses
might include conventionally constructed single-family dwellings and other uses as
2 -
^-- ----.
authorized by local ordinances. The following problem may present itself: cer-
tain lots are designated for mobilehomes on permanent foundations. However,
those lot owners, or a substantial portion of them, choose to construct con-
ventional dwellings on those lots. Must the city designate other "compatible"
lots to remain in compliance with the legislation or is the initial. designation `
sufficient? The intent of the Legislature was to provide available land zoned for
single-family dwellings for mobilehomes. There was no indication, however, that
non-residential land must be rezoned to provide that land (CF. AB 2853 (Roos)
(Chapter 1142, 1980 Statutes) ; AB 2320 (McCarthy) (Chapter 1152, 1980 Statutes) .
8., How Many lots must be designated pursuant to Part Two to comply with Govern-
" meet Code Section 65852.3?
There was no discussion by the Legislature or the bill's sponsors which would help
to answer this question. The intent of the Legislature was to require the integra-
tion of mobilehomes on permanent foundations wi .h_cpnvention^� is -tines- -f="Y-dwellings
Gpq to prevent_J._oc_ al governments land use policies from precluding what is per-
ceived as an affordable housing alternative. Presumably, the Part Two designation
would be reviewed to determine whether the local agency acted reasonably in imple-
menting the Legislature's intent (see also question 17) .
Part Three
"A city,. including a charter city, county, or city and county may subject dny such
mobilehome and the lot on which it is placed to any or all of the same development
standards to which a conventional single-family residential dwelling on the same
lot would be subject, including, but not limited to, building setback standards,
side and rear yard requirements, standards for enclosures, access, and vehicle
parking and architectural, aesthetic requirements, and minimum square footage re-
quirements."
9 May a city subiect a mobilehome on a permanent foundation to a development stan-
dard to which a conventional single-family dwelling is either not subject or
subject to, to a lesser degree?
No. To apply a development standard to a mobilehome on a permanent foundation, the
same standard must be applied to a conventional single-family dwelling.
10. What are "standards for enclosures"?
The intent of including this phrase in the definition of "development standards"
was to allow for, but not be limited to, covered parking and garage requirements.
11. What is the difference between an "architectural" requirement and an "aesthetic"
requirement?
Neither the Legislature nor the bill's sponsors discussed the difference between
these two words or their intent in including both terms. Some jurisdictions have
argued that aesthetic requirements focus on design while architectural requirements
focus on structural materials and construction.
Part Four
"However, any architectural requirements imposed on the mobilehome structure itself,
exclusive of any requirement for any and all additional enclosures, shall be limited
to its roof overhang, roofing material, and siding material."
12. May a city impose requirements for roof overhang roofing material and silliu
material on a mobilehome on a permanent foundation if a conventional single-
family dwelling is not subject to such requirements?
No. The rule stated in Part Three applies. Architectural review has been defined-
as a "development standard;" a city may only apply a development standard to a
mobilehome on a permanent foundation if the same is applied to a conventional
single-family dwelling.
Part Five
"In no case may a city, including a charter city, county, or city and county apply
any development standards which will have the effect of totally precluding mobile-
homes from being installed as permanent residences."
13. What was the legislative intent in enacting this sentence?
The two purposes of the legislation generally and this- sentence specifically were
(1) to require the integration of mobilehomes on permanent foundations with con-
ventional single-family dwellings and (2) to prevent local land use policies from
precluding what. is perceived as an affordable housing alternative.
Miscellaneous
14. Health and Safety Code Section 18300.1 authorizes any person to file an appli-
cation with the city for a conditional use permit for a mobilehome and provides
for a public hearing procedure for its consideration, Health and Safety Code
Section 18300(g) (3) states that the Mobilehome Parks Act shall not prevent a
city- from requiring a permit to use a mobilehome outside a mobilehome park.
What is the relationship between Health and Safety Code Sections 18300.1 and
18300(g) (3) and new Government Code Section 65852.3?
Chapter 1142, by its terms, neither repealed Health and Safety Code Section
18300.1 nor Section 18300(g) (3) . The intent of the Legislature and the bill
sponsors in enacting Government Code Section 65852.3 was to preclude a city
from requiring a conditional use permit (or any other permit) for the place-
ment of a mobilehome on a permanent foundation on a lot zoned for single-
family dwellings. However, Part Three (third sentence of Section 65852.3)
would seem to allow a city to require a conditional use permit for a mobile-
home on a permanent foundation if such a permit were required for conventional
dwellings.
Unresolved Issues
Several legal questions have been raised relative to implementing SB 1960 (Rains) .
The scope of this memo does not permit answers to these questions. The following
issues are listed for your information and consideration:
15.' Is the designation of certain lots within a single-family zone as compatible
for mobilehomes on permanent foundations "spot zoning"7
16. Does the act of designating certain lots within a single-family zone as compat-
ible for mobilehomes on permanent foundations expose the city to challenge
by the non-designated lot owner on the basis of the equal protection clause?
17. Is the designation of certain lots as compatible for mobilehomes on perma-
nent foundations a legislative or quasi-judicial act?
- 4
18. What is the effect of. covenants, conditions and restrictions (or deed re-
strictions) precluding the use of a mobilehome on, a permanent foundation
in existence prior tothe effective date of SB 1960 (Rains) (July 1, 1981)?
19. What would be the effect of covenents, conditions and restrictions (or
deed restrictions) precluding the use of a mobilehome on a permanent founda-
tion entered into after the effective date of SB 1960 (Rains) (July 1,
1981)?

Dear Mr. Wyman: DEPUTIES
FACTS
You have informed us that a city, prior to
January 1, 1981, established a residential mobilehome
subdivision district on land previously zoned for single-
family dwellings, wherein an individual is permitted to
purchase a lot and install a mobilehome on a foundation
system. You have also informed us .that development
standards in the mobilehome subdivision require the
developer to meet most requirements imposed on conventional
housing. In this. regard, you have asked us the following
question.
QUESTION
Based on .the information presented in the Facts,
will mobilehomes on foundation systems be a permitted use on
all lots zoned for single-family dwellings within the city
in question on or after July 1, .1981, pursuant to Section
65852. 3 of the Government Code?
Honorable Phillip D. Wyman - p. 2 - #16136
OPINION '
Based on the information presented in the Facts,
mobilehomes on foundation systems will not be a permitted
use on all lots zoned for single-family dwellings within
the city in question on or after July 1, 1981, pursuant to
Section 65852. 3 of the Government Code.
ANALYSIS
Section 65852. 3 of the Government •Code, l which
will become opperative July 1, 1981 (see Sec. 3, Ch. 1142,
Stats. 1980) , Z provides as follows:
1165852. 3. A city, including a charter
city, county, or city and county shall not
prohibit the installation of mobilehomes
certified under the National Mobile Home
Construction and Safety Standards Act of
1974 (42 U.S.C. Section 5401, et seq. ) on
a foundation system, pursuant to Section
18551 of. the Health and Safety Code, on lots
. zoned for single-family dwellings. HOweTe_ ,
a city, including a charter city, county, or
city and county may designate lots zoned for
ge-family dwellings for mobilehomes as—
Rini
scribed in this section, which lots are
determined to be compatible for such mobile-
home use. A city, including a charter city,
county, or city and county may subject any
such mobilehome and the lot on which it is
placed to any or all of the same development
standards to which a conventional single-
family residential dwelling on the same lot
would be subject, including, but not limited
to, building setback standards, side and rear
yard requirements, standards for enclosures,
access, and vehicle parking and architec-
tural, aesthetic requirements, and minimum
1 Hereafter all section references are to the Government
Code unless otherwise indicated.
2 While Section 65852.3 has a delayed operative date,
the provisions became effective January 1, 1981
(see Sec. 9600) .
Honorable Phillip D. Wyman - p. 3 - #16136
square footage requirements. However, any
architectural requirements imposed on the
mobilehome structure itself, exclusive of
any requirement for any and all additional
enclosures, shall be limited to its roof
overhang, roofing material, and . siding
material. In no case may a city, including
a charter city, . county, or city and county
apply any development standards which will
have the effect of totally precluding mobile-
homes from being installed as permanent
residences. " (Emphasis added. )
Section 65852.3 essentially prohibits a city,
including a charter city, county, or city and county from
precluding, totally, the installation of mobilehomes on a
foundation system3 on. lots zoned for single-family dwellings.
The first sentence of Section 65852.3 contains the broad
prohibition against precluding installation of mobilehomes
on foundation systems on lots zoned for single-family dwell-
ings. The second sentence qualifies the broad sweep of the
first, permitting local agencies to designate lots zoned for
single-family' dwellings which are. determined by the local
agency to be compatible for the mobilehome use.
As can be seen, the provisions of Section 65852. 3
require a city or county, on or after July 1, 1981, to allow
a mobilehome on a foundation system on any lot zoned for
single-family dwellings, unless certain lots in single-family
dwelling zones are designated by the 'city or county for this
mobilehome use. The provisions of Section 65852. 3, however,
do not specify whether a designation made prior to the
effective date of Section 65852. 3 would comply with those
provisions.
It is a ;fundamental rule of statutory construction
that the courts will give statutes a reasonable construction
which conforms to the apparent purpose and intention of the
lawmakers (Clean Air Constituency v. California State Air
Resources Bd. , 11 Cal. 3d 601, 813) .
3 References -in this opinion to "mobilehomes" and
"foundation systems" are to the types of mobilehomes
and foundation systems described in Section 65852. 3.
Honorable Phillip D. Wyman - p. 4 - #16136
Applying this rule •to the question raised, we think
a designation made prior to the effective date of Section
65852. 3 would generally satisfy the requirements of this
provision. We think that the basic purpose and intention of
the Legislature in enacting Section 65852. 3 is fulfilled if
a city, whether prior to, or on or after, July 1, 1981 , has
designated lots zoned for single- family dwellings for mobile-
homes on foundation systems. In the absence of this type of
designation, Section 65852. 3 will require that the city permit
mobilehomes on foundation systems on all lots zoned for single-
family dwellings in the city.
In this instance, as set forth in the Facts, the
city prior to January 1, 1981, established a residential
mobilehome subdivision district on land previously zoned
for single-family dwellings, thus meeting the designation
requirement of Section 65852. 3 , as discussed above. Con-
sequently, the city in question would not be required pur-
suant to Section 65852.3 to, on or after July 1, 1981,
permit within its jurisdiction mobilehomes on foundation
systems .on all lots zoned for single-family dwellings .
As a final matter, we point out that Section
65852.3 would limit any architectural requirements which may
be placed on a mobilehome structure installed on a foundation
system on lots zoned for single-family dwellings, to those
requirements pertaining to ioo overhang, roofing material,
and siding material. Additionally, Section 65852. 3 would
prohibit any development standard which would have the
effect of totally precluding mobilehomes from being installed
as a permanent residence on lots zoned for single-family
dwellings .
Accordingly, in our opinion, ' based on the informa-
tion presented in the Facts, mobilehomes on foundation
systems will not be permitted use on all lots zoned for
single-family dwellings within the city in question on or
after July 1, 1981, pursuant to Sec,'-.ion 65852 . 3 of the
Government Code.

RE Department' s Legal Interpretation of S3 1960
In 1080 the Legislature passed and Governor 3rown signed into law S'D 1960
(Rains) which provides for mcbilehomes in sjncl� fa:n1ly residential zones
(Chapter
pter 1142, Statutes of 1980) . Currently, many localities exclude
mob;lehomes entirely, or restrict their location ti-I nobilehome parks. This
new law, which wil"i take effect on July 1, lg;;] , -�ssures that rnobilehomes
will have a place in every Ca] il'..-,rnia community.

?�� c^.•J�riCdl basis for determininq the mrmter of 1hts d`signntnd for
mot 'ishooe use is in the locality's h,,sir , al d'F_rat. Statutory req'Jiro ._r: ,
for local 'housing element--whether prepared pursu nt to G;varnment Code`
T_ction 55302(c) and the Housing Element Guidelines or the new Article 10.6,
- arcing with Section 65580, of the Government Code (AB 2 53)--require
l"cality to consider mobilehomes and provide adequate sites with zoning to
allow for mobilehomes. To the extent that there is a need for low and
moderate income housing, and these needs are not Laing met through other
housing programs, the locality must zone an amount of residential land for
mobilehomes commensurate with such need.
Furthermore, in order to withstand an equal protection challen,ie (see
questions 5 and 6 below) the locality should designate ail lots which are
equally compatible for mobilehome use and be able to point to the
characteristics 'which distinguish lots which were designated from those lots
which were not. In practice, since all lots in a zone will unerally be
equally compatible for the placement of mobilehomes , mobilehomes should be
added as an allowable use for an entire single family residential zone.
2. What does it mean that a locality may designate lots "which
lots are determined to be compatib ,e for such cooi :eh� o�r,J us ?�
The word "compatible" is not defined and, therefore, the locality may
exercise its own judgment in determining compatibility. Ho:aver, there must
be a rational basis for this determination. In complying with this
provision,, the local jurisdiction should establish the components for a
compatibility standard and, prior to designating single family lots for•
n'obi ,°.f.0"!e use, determine that the lots C ?et this standard. Til'_
jurisdiction may ';fish to make findings to this effect.
Geniraliy, sites will be compatible for mobilehome use if mobileiromes will
meet the existing zoning and subdivision requirements. The fear that the
pia--=nt of a mobilehome on a lot might have a negative = effect- - 9 a__iv rn^�^iic � � ct oil
sur•roinding lots does not mean that it is an incompatible land use.
Additiwral criteria th:t the city could ronAder in making the de,:ernination
are probably limited to architectural and historical factors. The litmus
test '.could be that the mobilehome would appear "totally out of place" .
Illustrative examples of mobilehome non-compatibility based on these
criteria might be in-fill lots in an historic preservation area or an area
composed of Victorian-styled structures. These situations invoke both of
the criteria noted above. Other older neighborhoods composed of large
two-story residences, although containing a variety of styles, might
likewise be architecturally incompatible for mobilehc:mes.
A 'word of caution, however. As the state of the art progresses, mobilehomes
may be designed 'which will be totally compatible with Victorians or other
architectural types. 771, compatibility may be reduced to simply meetinq
existing zoning and subdivision requirements. Tnis standard provides the
necessary rational basis and i; easy to apply. Since it also reflr_cts the
subsequent requirerent of the statute that the locality may subject the

si %, family d'oelIing, this stand nd would not be Subject to legal
-!iz enge.
3. Does the zonin:, for mobilehom.e parks or subdivisions comoly with
the r,e•,v I aw?
A 1CC31ity may continue to zone for mobilehone parks or subdivisions.
However, such zoning will meet the requirements of the new statute only if
conventional single family structures are also alloyed in such zones. Where
such mobilehome park or subdivisions exclude conventional single family
residences, the locality would still be required to allow mobilehones in
single family zones or designate lots in single family zones for
nohilehomes.
4. What is the relationship bet'ne=n the new law and the "lobilehomie
Parks 'c. 'vit respect to use perT tst
The i••,obilehome Parks Act sets standards for the design and use of mobilehome
parks and provides for state or local enforcement. Health and Safety Code
Section 15300(g) (3) states that the provisions therein do not prevent a
jurisdiction from requiring a use permit for a mobilehoTe which is installed
outside of a mobileho;ae park.
.+b'Ile SB 1950 did not explicitly repeal Section 1S300(g)(3) , a local
requirement of a use permit for a nobileho-ne in a single family residential
zone is inconsistent with the new la:i. The first sentence of the ne.v
Statut-? precludes a locality from prohibiting nobiichuTes pn lots in sicoll'?
family zones. Requiring a use permit implies possibly prohibition of th=
t*o^ilehom= use since the request for a permit cou':_' be denied. Therefore,
subsequent to the passage of SB 1960, a use permit for a mobilehome should
n;j' be required. This is likewise true if the locality opts for the
alternative of design ting single family lots for cobileho.me use. Once t'^e
site has been designated, there is no n^ed for a use permit If the permit
were granted, it would be superfluous; if the permit were denied, the
locality -would be in violation of the statute.
1iith respect to conditional use permits, conditions relating to factors
other than the fact oat the structure is a mobilehome can be required if
such conditions are likewise applied to conventional construction. This is
consistent with the express statement that nGbileilo.nes nay be subjected to
the sane development standards as are placed cr, conventional single family
dweI I ings.
5. Does the new statute require a city or county to "spot zone"?
"Scot zoning" is the practice of restricting a small parcel as an "island"
and giving it less rigits than surrounding prop-?Ities iV.mere no rational
reason exists foe' such a r^strlction• ?ii'. classlf)cat)i;n 'dnild be
discri,oinotory, i .e. , in violation of the equal protection clause. A
property that is favored by allowing additional uses is not spot zoning
Simie t;r:1 pro,CEir tv has not been discrimtra 2.J a;;ainst
-J^
-ni new law does not int?nd for localitio , to design,oto 10s in single
1 ?.y zones exclusi'Yely for mohileho7v "so. Sites identl°ied for
n.mMehowe use, should be available for coniantknal construction as :null .
Y .• feet, the permitted uses on the rr'uparty have been ei:7.'.::'cj to i•n•clus
7co ka braes. The property has therefore been treater! Favorably by allowin.l
an M itional use, and not discriminated against. This is not spot zoning.
5. Can the property owner whose single family lot is not zoned for
mo l enomas allege discrimination?
A Nroperty owner who wants to place a mobilehame on a lot 'where such use is
prohibited, could argue that the property has been discriminated against if
other, similarly situated properties, were designated for mobilehome use.
While a locality has a great deal of discretion in exercising its zoning
authority, the judicial test for determining 'whether a zoning classification
violates equal protection standards is as follows:
1 . The property owner challenging the regulation must demonstrate
that his or her property stands in precisely the same relationship
as those properties receiving preferential treatment ( i .e. , those
where_ mobilehomes are an additional use); and
2. The more narrow zoning classification must not have been made on
an arbitrary basis, but rather rust be based upon some distinction
which justifies the differential tre.stricK .
Meeting this standard should not he a prohlem for a locality in complying
A .. : the new ldrl since tills 15 the same St;"':aYd L.'1?L .^."st b2 anpl led in
tra'a:tlonal zoning practices. It simply Amens that the most
of sites
for mA ileham2 use must have some rational basis . Tnis basis will probably
be the same as the locality's determination of co^ :Bill ity. For example,
e
if very narrow in-fill lots in urban areas a`•2 rejected for mobilehome use
as not "compatible" (because of the need for a larger lot) , the rational
basis test rloult be met . Dn the other hard, in su'_urb an resiAntlal a` 2nu
where there is large lot zoning, there may be no basis for determining one
lot is compatible, another is not. In this situation, the most appropr'inte
way to designate icts for mobilehome use m5y be the adoption of a mobilekne
overlay permitting mobilehcmes on all lots in the particular single family
zone.
7. Does the new law nullify covenants, conditions and restrictions on
property which proniui s n:_:oil-ahw ash— ---�No. Restrictive covenants prohibiting mebilehomes on residential lots
(entered into either before or after passage of the bill) are not directly
affected by S3 190. The courts have upheld covenants restricting the use
of property in the face of v3ro e p naive zoning requirements . (See
Legislative Counsel Opinion No. iGOV, 11/17/ 0, afFlr-.n ng this view. )
lbwaver, the departnant has issued an opinion indicating that restrictive
covenants prohibiting robilehimes may bn =nforcovhk and that SR 1960 adds
