Section 18007 Of Chapter 1. Definitions From California Health And Safety Code >> Division 13. >> Part 2. >> Chapter 1.
18007
. (a) "Manufactured home," for the purposes of this part,
means a structure that was constructed on or after June 15, 1976, is
transportable in one or more sections, is eight body feet or more in
width, or 40 body feet or more in length, in the traveling mode, or,
when erected on site, is 320 or more square feet, is built on a
permanent chassis and designed to be used as a single-family dwelling
with or without a foundation when connected to the required
utilities, and includes the plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and
electrical systems contained therein. "Manufactured home" includes
any structure that meets all the requirements of this paragraph
except the size requirements and with respect to which the
manufacturer voluntarily files a certification and complies with the
standards established under the National Manufactured Housing
Construction and Safety Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C., Sec. 5401, and
following).
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a codified
provision of state law uses the term "manufactured home," and it
clearly appears from the context that the term "manufactured home"
should apply only to manufactured homes, as defined under subdivision
(a), the codified provision shall apply only to those manufactured
homes. If any codified provision of state law, by its context,
requires that the term applies to manufactured homes or mobilehomes
without regard to the date of construction, the codified provision
shall apply to both manufactured homes, as defined under subdivision
(a), and mobilehomes as defined under Section 18008.
