Each mobile manufactured home park shall conform to the requirements of the State Building Code, the Fire Safety Code and local ordinances or planning or zoning regulations, if any, provided an applicant for a license for a mobile manufactured home park in existence on October 1, 1972, may, with the consent of the Commissioner of Consumer Protection, be exempted from the provisions of sections 425.31, 425.32, 425.33, 425.51 and 425.52 of the basic or State Building Code, if such park meets the remaining requirements for a license; and provided further, the commissioner may exempt any mobile manufactured home park from the provisions of section 425.37 of said code, with respect to faucets, sanitary facilities, laundry tubs and slop sinks for community use. The replacement of a mobile manufactured home in a mobile manufactured home park with a mobile manufactured home with the same or different external dimensions that is built in compliance with federal mobile manufactured home construction and safety standards, as amended from time to time, shall not constitute an expansion of a nonconforming use.

Cited. 208 C. 620.

Provision added to section by P.A. 07-43, re replacement of a mobile manufactured home not constituting an expansion of a nonconforming use, has no retroactive application because there is no evidence of an intent to clarify existing law and action was pending at the time of passage, and Sec. 1-1(u) provides that passage of an act shall not affect any pending action. 106 CA 1.
