Tonight, Thursday, March 14, at 7 p.m., the Middlesex Planning Commission will conduct a public hearing on a proposed zoning ordinance amendment to add “Resort Manufactured Homes Community” (RMHC) as a subcategory to the existing Article 13 for “Manufactured Homes.”
“It is important to consider that this application is for amending the ordinance and is not site or parcel specific at this time,” wrote Middlesex Planning Director David Kretz in his staff analysis.
In September 2023, Leonard H. Powell of Hyattsville, Md., a suburb of Washington, D.C., applied for an ordinance amendment request to allow, as a Special Exception Use, Manufactured Home Parks in Waterfront Commercial Districts. That request received a denial recommendation from the Middlesex Planning Commission. Powell then withdrew the application before it could go to the Middlesex Board of Supervisors, which is the only body that can grant zoning changes or special exceptions.
