Vancouver, Wash. – Clark County Community Planning will host an open house later this month on proposed updates to the county’s manufactured housing and mobile home code.

The open house will be held 6-8 pm Thursday, June 28, in Building B-1 at the county’s 78th Street Operations Center, 4700 NE 78th St. County staff will present an overview of the project at 6:30 pm.

The updates were discussed as part of the Housing Initiative project, a communitywide effort to provide more housing choices. The Clark County Council recently adopted amendments to the Unified Development Code to support a diversity of housing choices, increase the variety of housing types for smaller households, and promote housing affordability. 

Due to the complexity of the project, the manufactured housing and mobile home code changes are being handled separately from the rest of the 2017 Housing Initiative project. The work is to be completed in 2018.

The Planning Commission is scheduled to hear this item at 6:30 pm Thursday, Aug. 16. The commission will make a recommendation to the county councilors, who will hold a hearing on the code update at 10 am Tuesday, Sept. 18. Both hearings will be in the sixth-floor hearing room at the Public Service Center, 1300 Franklin St.

More information on the update is available on the county’s website, www.clark.wa.gov/community-planning/manufactured-housing.
