This request, which is for seven (7) years, appears to be in character with the neighborhood at the
present time. The manufactured home is located in an area designated by the Jefferson Davis
Highway Corridor for residential use. Adjacent properties are zoned Agricultural (A) and
Residential (R-7). Development is this area has started and gives the neighborhood a stable
residential character. If this were a new request, staff would recommend denial, however, since this
manufactured home has been parked on the subject property since the 1970's, staff would
recommend approval subject to the aforementioned conditions.
Because of the potential for future development in this area, staff believes that the Board should
advise the applicant to look upon this request as a temporary dwelling, if approved, it may or may not
necessarily be renewed.
Staff recommends approval of this request for seven (7) years, subject to Conditions 1 through 4, as
noted herein.
