15 section 39-4105, Idaho Code.
16 (2) Manufactured homes on individual lots zoned for single-family resi-
17 dential uses as provided in subsection (1) of this section shall be in addi-
18 tion to manufactured homes on lots within designated mobile home parks or man-
19 ufactured home subdivisions.
20 (3) This section shall not be construed as abrogating a recorded restric-
21 tive covenant.
22 (4) A governing board may adopt any or all of the following placement
23 standards, or any less restrictive standards, for the approval of manufactured
24 homes located outside mobile home parks:
25 (a) The manufactured home shall be multisectional and enclose a space of
26 not less than one thousand (1,000) square feet;
27 (b) The manufactured home shall be placed on an excavated and backfilled
28 foundation and enclosed at the perimeter such that the home is located not

30 foundation;
31 (c) The manufactured home shall have a pitched roof, except that no stan-
32 dards shall require a slope of greater than a nominal three (3) feet in
33 height for each twelve (12) feet in width;
34 (d) The manufactured home shall have exterior siding and roofing which in
