SECTION 1.0 USE TYPES & REGULATIONS
1.1 General Applicability
A. Any use not specifically designated as either a permitted or Special Use in a zoning or the use
appears to fit into two or more categories, the proposed use may be classified the same as the
most similar use listed. In utilizing this type of classification method, the Zoning
Administrator shall utilize the following factors: types of activities that will occur, types of
equipment, and processes that will be used; density; intensity of development; building and
site arrangement; environmental effects; anticipated traffic amount, parking demands; noise;
light; vibration; odor; hours of operation; frequency, number, and existence of residents,
customers, or employees; and impacts on adjacent structures, uses, or lands created by the
proposed use. Uses not listed or classified as a similar use may be included by following the
amendment process described elsewhere in this Ordinance. The following uses shall be
expressly prohibited:
1. Abandoned Manufactured Homes
a. Unless otherwise provided, manufactured homes that are considered to be abandoned
according to the definition for abandoned manufactured homes shall be prohibited in all
zoning districts within Harnett County. Once a determination has been made by the
Administrator or his authorized agent that a manufactured home is abandoned then the
Administrator shall take action to abate the violation using any of the enforcement procedures
in Article “Enforcement & Penalties” of this Ordinance.
b. Harnett County may require the removal of junked or abandoned manufactured homes from
public grounds, including but not limited to public or private street right(s)-of-way or private
property upon finding that such removal is necessary and desirable to promote or enhance
community, neighborhood, or area appearance or to abate public health or safety nuisances.
