An additional goal of such development, as I understand it, would be to reduce vehicular traffic (assumedly that traffic consisting of workers coming into or out of TV) but really that seems minor compared to the traffic problems caused by a lagging infrastructure and hordes of Villagers (particularly in high "snowbird" season) already clogging our street and roads.
Finally, "manufactured housing" in the minds of some (many?) is synonymous with "trailer park", with all the negative connotations that such a development would bring. Maybe it is an ungrounded fear, but manufactured housing in TV for young people working in service jobs would assuredly bring in people that the retired and older residents of TV do NOT want around and in many cases moved here to escape the problems that such a population inevitably seems to bring.
In my mind such a plan would cause more problems than it solves.

The bedroom community is what we left behind. Hope it doesn't come knocking on our front door.
