AN ACT to amend and reenact §8A-11-1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, as amended, relating to standards for factory-built homes; providing for building code requirements for manufactured housing to be the same as for requirements for other single-family homes.

Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:


ARTICLE 11. SPECIAL PROVISIONS.


§8A-11-1. Standards for factory-built homes.

(a) Notwithstanding any existing provisions of law, municipal or county ordinance or state building code, the standards for factory-built homes, housing prototypes, subsystems, materials and components certified as acceptable by the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development are considered acceptable and are approved for use in housing construction in this state.

(b) Appropriate building code compliance documentation attached to a factory-built home shall constitute prima facie evidence that the products or materials contained therein are acceptable.

(c) A governing body of a municipality or a county, when enacting any ordinance or regulation for the purposes of regulating the subdivision, development and use of land, shall uniformly apply such design standards and associated review and permitting procedures for factory-built and other single-family constructed homes.

(d) Factory-built homes, like other types of homes, shall be constructed and installed in conformity with the requirements of 44 C.F.R. §60.3(1976) and any applicable statute or rule relating to building in a flood zone.
