The St. Clair County Board recognizes the existence of
transitional residential development within the County as a requisite of housing particularly for low and
moderate income residents. Characteristically these transitional residential areas have included intermittent residential development on small lot subdivisions; on individually divided lots of varying size; from the subdivision of previously developed lots; and from older, partially developed subdivisions. Initial development was of the fixed location conventional type housing. Subsequent occupancy of vacant lots by manufactured homes resulted in a combination of housing types.
It is the intent of the SR-MH District to provide unified regulation for continued development and
maintenance of the combined mobile home/fixed location housing areas in the County; to achieve orderly
development in those areas; and maximize compatibility with adjacent areas.
