Zoning & permits in Allen County
Allen County's Department of Planning Services handles zoning and building permits for unincorporated areas; Fort Wayne, New Haven and the towns have their own offices. Manufactured homes are allowed on many residential and agricultural lots outside city limits, often with foundation and skirting standards. Confirm your parcel's zoning with them before you commit to a home — we can tell you which office to call.
Foundations & frost depth
Allen County footings go below the local frost line, generally 36 inches. Piers and perimeter foundations for a HUD-code home, and the full foundation for a modular, are inspected to that depth, so plan the concrete before the home ships.
