Planning Board-Regular
Meeting Date:	06/13/2011
Issue:	LDC Ordinance - Article 6 "Uses and Parking of Recreational Vehicles"
From:	T. Lloyd Kerr, AICP
Organization:	Development Services

RECOMMENDATION:
That the Planning Board review and recommend approval to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) for adoption, an Ordinance to the Land Development Code (LDC) amending Article 6 “General Provisions”, Section 6.04.04 to redefine “uses and parking of recreational vehicles."
BACKGROUND:
The Development Services staff was directed to explore possible changes to the Land Development Code (LDC) regarding the use of Recreational Vehicles (RV’s) as living quarters. Currently the LDC prohibits the use of RV’s as living quarters for more than 14 days in a calendar year except in licensed RV parks or mobile home parks. The Planning Board discussed the issue at the May 9, 2011 Planning Board meeting and rendered a recommendation to remove the language pertaining to a conditional use permit, being that no such permit exists.
BUDGETARY IMPACT:
No budgetary impact is anticipated by the adoption of this Ordinance.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF:
The attached Ordinance was reviewed and approved for legal sufficiency by Stephen West, Assistant County Attorney. Any suggested legal comments are attached herein with the respective Ordinance to which they pertain.
PERSONNEL:
No additional personnel are required for implementation of this Ordinance.
POLICY/REQUIREMENT FOR BOARD ACTION:
The proposed Ordinance is consistent with the Board’s goal “to increase citizen involvement in, access to, and approval of, County government activities.”
IMPLEMENTATION/COORDINATION:
Implementation of this Ordinance will consist of an amendment to the LDC and distribution of a copy of the adopted Ordinance to interested citizens and staff. The proposed Ordinance was prepared in cooperation with the Development Services Department, the County Attorney’s Office and all interested citizens. The Development Services Department will ensure proper advertisement.
