VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. DISCUSSION OF INFORMATION ABOUT CATAWBA COUNTY'S RECENT ZONING ORDINANCE AKgMDMENTBI Mr. Allison explained that in a previous meeting he had been asked for information regarding new mobile home zoning amendments in Catawba County. Allison said that more stringent esthetic criteria could be added to the County's present ordinance if desired. Commissioner Madison asked if the planning department had talked to the Department of Housing & Urban Development about requirements for long-term financing for a single/double-wide mobile home. Allison said he would be glad to research this. Mr. Madison said that problems occur with the second financing. When dealers sell the homes they generally sell in a package of some sort. If the package doesn't meet refinancing requirements that will be encountered five or ten years down the road, problems occur. Probably half or more of the mobile homes in Iredell County do not meet these standards. If Iredell's ordinance is amended, HUD's development standards could be incorporated and the ordinance would be right. In the future when a young couple wants to sell the mobile home/lot and do something else, whoever buys the home will be able to put permanent financing on it. Mobile homes are not re -marketable because of the way they were set up in the first financing. Mr. Allison will report back to the Board when additional information is obtained.
