Referred to the House Committee on Financial Services.
H.R. 5263 gives the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development primary authority over all federal manufactured home construction and safety standards. The bill requires any federal agency that wants to establish or modify manufactured home safety standards to first get approval from HUD, and allows the Secretary to reject proposed standards if they would significantly increase production costs, conflict with existing HUD standards, or for any other reason the Secretary deems appropriate. The legislation also adds energy efficiency to the list of design factors HUD can address. This bill affects manufactured home manufacturers, federal agencies involved in setting housing standards, and potentially consumers of manufactured homes. There is no specific funding or implementation timeline mentioned in the legislation.
