(Prior code § 11-7-4B)
The permittee or his agent must notify the State Building Inspector when the work is ready for inspection. In addition to special inspections which may be necessary, the following inspections are required:
A. 
Foundation Inspection. To be made after excavations for footings are complete and any required reinforcing steel is in place. For concrete foundations, forms shall be in place prior to inspection. All materials for the foundation shall be on the job, except where concrete is ready mixed in accordance with the Uniform Building Code, then the concrete need not be on the job. The foundation inspection must be completed before the concrete is placed.
B. 
Under-Floor Inspection. To be made after the concrete block or poured concrete foundations have been constructed, and all under-floor building service equipment, conduit, piping accessories and other ancillary equipment items are in place, but before the manufactured housing unit is placed on the concrete block or poured stem wall. (This inspection may be waived if the homeowner is skirting the unit, and all under-floor piping and equipment is in place at the foundation inspection.)
C. 
Final Inspection. To be made after the manufactured housing unit is completely installed and bolted to the stem wall. Homeowner/installer must have appropriate permits for a septic system from the New Mexico Environmental District, and appropriate permits for plumbing, electrical and mechanical from the State of New Mexico Construction Industries, and an approved permit from the State Manufactured Housing Division.
Other inspections and/or a survey of the lot will also be required by the town of Mesilla to verify compliance of the structure with the provisions of the Uniform Building Code and the zoning code.
(Prior code § 11-7-4C)
Fees for the building permit to install a manufactured housing unit shall be the same as those in effect for a building permit to build a site-built house, see MTC § 15.15.040, Building permit fees, attached to the building permit application.
(Prior code § 11-7-4D)
The building permit shall be applied for with the town in the same manner that building permits are applied for all other construction within the town of Mesilla. The building permit review process will be the same for installation of a manufactured housing unit, as for all other permits.
(Prior code § 11-7-4E)
It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to install, use or occupy any manufactured housing unit which does not have a building permit approved by the town of Mesilla after the adoption of this chapter.
