Operators and owners of manufactured homes in Groton should be aware that § 127-33 ties compliance directly to the anchoring requirements found in § 109-13A of Chapter 109, Flood Damage Prevention. A compliant operator generally ensures that any manufactured home on their property is anchored in the manner prescribed by that cross-referenced section before occupancy and whenever the home is relocated or reinstalled. Keeping documentation of anchoring work and any inspections can support a showing of compliance with this provision.
