It is the intent of this section that adequate provision be made for manufactured home housing in the City. It is further the intent to declare that the use of manufactured homes for dwelling purposes be in manufactured home parks or manufactured home subdivisions, except as set out specifically in this chapter.

Therefore, a special district of low density is established to provide suitable living environments in manufactured home developments and to ensure the compatibility of such developments with adjoining and nearby present and future development of other types.
