Cooper calls for study about mobile homes

?I asked the Department to send investigators to Warren County to look at sites where manufactured homes had been destroyed, and they have agreed to do so,? said Cooper. ?I believe it is important for the state to find out if these homes were properly manufactured and installed and to ensure the manufactured housing industry is following all rules and regulations.

“These inspections by the department will enable the General Assembly to determine if current Tennessee manufactured housing laws are as effective as they should be in protecting our citizens.?

?In light of the horrible tornados and storms Warren County recently suffered, these questions need to be answered,? he added.
