For Property Managers

Operators of manufactured home communities subject to § 217-24 generally ensure that intersection lighting is installed and operational from dusk to dawn, calibrated to meet the recommendations of the applicable utility company. Compliant operators also provide a lawn light or post light at each manufactured home lot and verify that all exterior lighting installations conform to the Town of Manchester Zoning Code, § 325-43. Routine inspections of lighting equipment—particularly as seasons change and darkness arrives earlier—are a common practice among operators maintaining compliance with this provision.

For Tenants

Under § 217-24 of Manchester's Code of Ordinances ch. 217, residents of manufactured home communities have an interest in adequate intersection lighting from dusk to dawn and a lawn or post light at their individual lot. If lighting at intersections or on a lot appears insufficient or non-functional, tenants may document the condition and raise the issue with community management or contact the relevant Town of Manchester code enforcement office. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with manufactured housing regulations can help residents understand what options may be available when lighting standards are not being met.
