Since this program pertains only to the first-time installation of a manufactured home, the primary standards are the specifications provided in the manufacturer's installation instructions. However, alternate standards developed by the federal department of housing and urban development and adopted by the state may also be utilized. Standards for construction of permanent foundations are the responsibility of the local jurisdiction in which a manufactured home is installed if it varies from the manufacturer's installation instructions. Variations may require approved engineered or architectural plans.
Nothing in this section shall preclude a local government from enacting standards for manufactured homes concerning unique public safety requirements as otherwise permitted by law.
From time to time the division, in consultation with the installation committee, may issue interpretations of the standards to be followed during the course of manufactured home installations and inspections.
