Mobile Home Park Shelter Capacities 09/24/O1 <br />Apple Valley: <br />For mobile home parks and storm shelters....here are the standards <br />for size that we used on the Apple Valley storm shelter. There were 359 units in the <br />development. We used an average of 2.5 people per unit, 4 s.f. per person, and (an <br />assumption o� 80% park occupancy at the time of storm. For example, using these <br />numbers we arrived at 7 18 people to use the shelter, and 2,872 s.f. of shelter for the <br />development. <br />I believe the 4 s.% was a national standard (FEMA Possibly?). The % in park at time of <br />storm number was left up to us to decide. We felt safe with between 70 and 80% and I <br />believe used the most conservative number to be safe. <br />Blaine: 27 s.f. per unit or 810 s.f. per each 30 units. <br />Shoreview: 9.0 s.f. per unit <br />Maplewood: 3 s.f. per person with space for 80% of occupants (used in Apartments as <br />well) <br />Q:comdev/planning fiels/pf3225/MHCapacities <br />
