City of New London

The verified public ordinance requires an application and city approval before any HUD-code manufactured home may be installed in New London.

Note: No public exempt-work list was found. No public citywide general building-permit program was identified from the reviewed sources, so no citywide exempt-work list could be verified.

Building code

For the verified manufactured-home program, the ordinance requires compliance with Texas Occupations Code title 7, subsection C, and Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs rules for HUD-code manufactured homes.

Permit validity

Underpinning and porches must be completed within 30 days after obtaining approval.

Contractor requirements

No public local contractor-registration rule was identified in the reviewed city sources. State manufactured-housing and trade licensing rules may still apply.

1. 01
   Confirm whether the project is a HUD-code manufactured home installation or manufactured-home park expansion, because that is the city permit program clearly documented in public sources.
2. 02
   Submit an application to the City of New London on the city-prescribed form for a HUD-code manufactured home.
3. 03
   Obtain approval from the City Council before installation.
4. 04
   Complete required installation items, including underpinning and porches, and comply with TDHCA and state manufactured-housing rules.
5. 05
   Do not occupy the unit until city specifications have been met and inspected by a city representative.
