To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 301

The new paragraph requires the Secretary, after consulting the consensus committee, to set standards ensuring that a home without a permanent chassis carries a distinct label issued by the Secretary, with the revenue paid into the Manufactured Housing Fees Trust Fund, a data plate as described in section 3280.5 of title 24 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and a notation on the manufacturer's invoice, each marking it apart from a home built on a permanent chassis.

What the document actually says

“``(iii) a notation on any invoice produced by the manufacturer of a manufactured home that is distinguishable from the invoice for a manufactured home constructed with a permanent chassis.''.”

That sentence, in plain words

The maker's bill of sale must carry a note. The note sets this home apart from one with a steel frame.

What this is about

Two other marks are required as well. One is a label the housing agency issues. One is a small metal plate fixed to the home.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
