Manufactured Housing Ordinance hits opposition from residences

What is so important in Mohave County Arizona you ask? The county board there is trying to pass an ordinance that would restrict the placement of Manufactured Homes in the county that are older than 7 years!

The county is trying to move the regulation that it currently has that has a restriction of any home built after June 15 1976, the date in which HUD started regulating the construction of Manufactured Housing. \
The board passed the motion 5-0 and the local residents are looking to have the motion repealed. A resident in Mohave county would have to prove the age as 7 years old or newer and display HUD label on the unit prior to receiving a Building permit from the county to install the home.

The board is trying to regulate what? There are numerous home older than 7 year years old that look amazing and homes that are 2 years old that are uninhabitable.

If the objective is to maintain values and aesthetics than regulate the upkeep of properties regardless of construction good grief the HOA's in Arizona have figured that out. The battle of quality housing in counties rages on!

Peterson Commercial Group Honor Flight

Next Wednesday, November 11 is Veterans Day.
As an Air Force Veteran I have had a passion to Honor those Veterans who went before me. 2 years ago I had the privilege participate in Honor Flight and fly back to Washington DC as a Guardian with WWII Veterans. The affect that trip had on these men was life changing for me in many ways.
Our desire is to raise enough to fly 7 more of these Veterans back as time is so so limited to touch their lives!
3 members of PCG will be riding in The Tour De Tucson in 3 weeks as a Fund Raiser for these amazing men, "the Greatest Generation" in a way to say thanks for the freedom we enjoy today.
I have attached a link so that those that would like to donate any amount of money as a way to show our appreciation for their sacrifice and service can do so. https://www.gofundme.com/PCGHonorFlight
