Mobile Home Park / RV Zoning in Kansas
Hey everyone!
First time poster on the forum. Been heavy into the podcast and doing research and I want to tap into your collective knowledge-base.
I am exploring a property in Kansas, which is a mobile home park but also has some RV hookups/spots. I am not a fan of the RV side of the business and want to transition it to a 100% tenant owned mobile home park.
The seller mentioned that in Kansas the zoning laws are different, and we would be able to turn every 2 RV spots into a Mobile Home Lot. I tried doing some digging in the county and state laws, but not coming up with anything. I, of course, dont want to move forward with this as an assumption.
Anyone with experience in Kansas able to enlighten me?!
Thank you!

Hi David. Is the park within city limits? If so, the city's zoning laws should control, not the county or state. I would check with the City on getting a copy of their zoning regulations. But I do agree with you that what you are wanting to do should not be a problem if the pads were originally constructed for mobile homes. In that case, it would be more likely that the current owner may be violating a zoning reg by putting RVs on mobile home pads.
