Rome-Floyd Planning Commission backs manufactured home request on Ford Street
The Rome-Floyd Planning Commission recommended approval Thursday for a new manufactured home on Ford Street. Planning staff had recommended against it but the citizen board decided based on the applicant’s individual circumstances rather than the precedent in place. The property at 20 Ford St. is currently zoned Multifamily Residential. The request would rezone it to Suburban Residential and allow a manufactured home through a special use permit. Planning and Zoning Director Brice Wood told commissioners that planning staff supported the rezoning but recommended denial of the special use permit for the manufactured home. Wood said the small property does not have access to public sewer and is served by a septic system, making multifamily development difficult despite its current zoning. But the surrounding neighborhood is largely made up of site-built single-family homes. There are two, possibly three, manufactured homes in the neighborhood that have been there for some time, he said. However, the manufactured homes were built when the area was unincorporated Floyd County before being annexed into the city of Rome. Staff’s concern centered on the city’s longstanding practice of generally not approving new manufactured homes inside the city limits. Wood said he was aware of only one such
