Section 4781.31 | Submitting development plans to division.
(A) No person shall cause development to occur within any portion of a manufactured home park until the plans for the development have been submitted to and reviewed and approved by the manufactured homes commission. This division does not require that plans be submitted to the commission for approval for the replacement of manufactured or mobile homes on previously approved lots in a manufactured home park when no development is to occur in connection with the replacement. Within thirty days after receipt of the plans, all supporting documents and materials required to complete the review, and the applicable plan review fee established under division (D) of this section, the commission shall approve or disapprove the plans.
(B) Any person aggrieved by the commission's disapproval of a set of plans under division (A) of this section may request a hearing on the matter within thirty days after receipt of the commission's notice of the disapproval. The hearing shall be held in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code. Thereafter, the disapproval may be appealed in the manner provided in section 119.12 of the Revised Code.
(C) The commission shall establish a system by which development occurring within a manufactured home park is inspected or verified in accordance with rules adopted under section 4781.26 of the Revised Code to ensure that the development complies with the plans approved under division (A) of this section.
(D) The commission shall establish fees for reviewing plans under division (A) of this section and conducting inspections under division (C) of this section.

All such plan review and inspection fees received by the commission shall be transmitted to the treasurer of state and shall be credited to the occupational licensing and regulatory fund created in section 4743.05 of the Revised Code. Moneys so credited to the fund shall be used only for the purpose of administering and enforcing sections 4781.26 to 4781.35 of the Revised Code and rules adopted under those sections.
(F) Plan approvals issued under this section do not constitute an exemption from the land use and building requirements of the political subdivision in which the manufactured home park is or is to be located.
