Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118B § 118B.0111
“Appurtenance” defined.
Operative Text
“Appurtenance” means a structure, installation, facility, amenity or other improvement that is appurtenant to or benefits one or more manufactured homes, but is not a part of the manufactured home. The term includes, without limitation, skirting, ramps, cabanas, carports, porches, awnings, sheds and other structures, installations, facilities and amenities associated with or benefiting one or more manufactured homes.
Under Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118B § 118B.0111, an 'appurtenance' is any structure, installation, facility, or amenity that is connected to or benefits one or more manufactured homes without being a physical part of the home itself. The definition expressly covers items such as skirting, ramps, cabanas, carports, porches, awnings, and sheds. This definition shapes how Nevada's manufactured-home park laws apply to these attached or associated features throughout Chapter 118B.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of manufactured-home parks in Nevada should be aware that the definition established in Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118B § 118B.0111 extends Chapter 118B's protections and obligations to a broad range of exterior features beyond the home's structure itself. Compliant park operators typically account for items like carports, awnings, and skirting when addressing maintenance responsibilities, lease terms, and any disputes over park rules. Understanding which features qualify as appurtenances under this section helps operators apply the rest of Chapter 118B consistently.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118B § 118B.0111 establishes that structures like carports, porches, awnings, and skirting associated with a manufactured home are legally recognized as appurtenances, meaning they may be covered by the rights and protections found elsewhere in Chapter 118B. Tenants who have concerns about how a park owner is treating these features—such as requiring removal or charging fees related to them—may find that this definition is relevant to their situation. General enforcement paths can include raising the definition as part of a complaint to a local housing authority or consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with Nevada manufactured-home park law.
