of the Uniform Building Code most recently adopted by the International
Conference of Building Officials.

require factory-built housing to comply with standards for safety which exceed
the standards prescribed in subsection 1 if a single-family residential
dwelling on the same lot is also required to comply with those standards.
3. The governing body shall adopt the same
standards for development for the factory-built housing and the lot on which it
is placed as those to which a conventional single-family residential dwelling

parking of vehicles.

for the issuance of a permit to install factory-built housing in the affected
area; or
(b) The area contains a building, structure or
other object having a special character or special historical interest or
value.
5. As used in this section, factory-built
housing has the meaning ascribed to it in NRS
