Manufactured Home Placement Permits

Manufactured Home Placement Permits

Manufactured homes are allowed in the City of Sioux Falls in licensed manufactured home parks or in the MH-Residential Zoning district. Prior to delivery of the manufactured home, the owner of the home should contact the Zoning Office for placement requirements.

Owners of manufactured home have responsibilities even when their homes are within a licensed manufactured home park. The responsibilities of a park occupant include maintaining the manufactured home space/lot and assuring that the home’s facilities and equipment are in good repair. Responsibilities of occupants of a licensed manufactured home park are available in the zoning office or by downloading them from this website.

Manufactured homes that are not owner occupied and rented must register the dwelling as a rental property.
