Compensatory measures outlined in this policy pertain to tenancy agreements where the manufactured home pad is rented but the dwelling itself is owned by the tenant. In instances where tenancy includes the rental of the housing unit, Council Policy No. 6.32 – Tenant Relocation Assistance Policy – will apply. This policy will be triggered by a rezoning application for the subject property.
