Summary

Before anyone may live in a manufactured or mobile home in Marysville, the city building official must inspect and approve the installation; installers request the inspection once setup is complete, and occupying beforehand carries no city approval.

No person may occupy or allow or suffer another person to occupy a mobile/manufactured home before the installation of the same has been inspected and approved by the city building official. The installer shall request an inspection after all aspects of the installation, other than installation of the foundation facia, have been completed. The building official will inspect the installation within five business days after he receives the request... Occupancy before inspection does not imply city approval.

Full Breakdown

Marysville's building official has sole authority to inspect and approve manufactured and mobile home installations before occupancy (MMC § 22C.230.090, § 22C.230.120). Once setup is finished, except for the foundation facia, the installer requests an inspection and the official must respond within five business days. Occupying before that inspection carries no implied city approval and is at the resident's own risk. If the installation fails the chapter's standards or permit conditions, the official issues a written corrections list with a completion deadline, then re-inspects. Ordinary site-built homes instead follow the inspection sequence in the state-adopted International Building and Residential Codes at MMC Chapter 16.04, not a separate Marysville-authored process.

Violations & Fines

Occupying a mobile or manufactured home before the required installation inspection voids any claim of city approval, and uncorrected installation defects block final approval to occupy.
