City Council Meeting - FINAL
Meeting Date:
06/16/2015
From:
Michael Scheu, Building Official

Information

TITLE:

Consideration and Approval of Contract:  Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) with the State Office of Manufactured Housing. (IGA for the City of Flagstaff to perform set-up inspections)

RECOMMENDED ACTION:

    Approve the IGA between the City and the State Office of Manufactured Housing regarding the City performing set-up inspections to help owner(s) occupy the home sooner. 

Executive Summary:

Manufactured housing is one of the few alternatives that provides more affordable housing for those who cannot afford the conventional stick building housing. The IGA  with the State Office of Manufactured Housing allows the City to perform set-up inspections that will help the owner(s) occupy the home sooner than if they had to wait for an inspector to come up from the Phoenix area. The proposed IGA  will replace the current IGA that expires on June 30th of this year. 

Financial Impact:

The City  charges $120.00 per Manufactured Home set-up and collected approximately $2,880 for 24 Manufactured Home permits in 2014.

Connection to Council Goal and/or Regional Plan:


4) Explore and adopt policies to lower the costs associated with housing to the end user

   
 

Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This:

Council approved the current IGA on 13 April, 2010.

Options and Alternatives:

1. Council may allow the current IGA to expire. This would delay  the owners from occupying their home for an extended period of time that would be based on when an inspector from Phoenix can come up to inspect the installation of the manufactured home.
2.  Council may adopt the Resolution.  This would allow the City to inspect the installation of the manufactured home in a more timely manner which would allow the owner(s) to occupy their home faster.
