Local officials, while not wanting to deny anyone their dream house, say changing the rules is a process, according to charlotteobserver. Shad Spencer, of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Planning Department, says, “There’s a place for it somewhere. We’ve just got to figure out where.” Baxter tells MHProNews her home is like a recreational vehicle (RV). Since RVs are not considered permanent homes, Spencer says that makes it difficult to park for any length of time in Mecklenburg County.
For the meantime, Baxter will site the Tiny House on a friend’s property. ##
