Commission declines to act on temporary RV placement; applicant asked to return on agenda
Summary
Property owners asking to keep a fifth‑wheel on their lot were told the commission could not act because they were not on the agenda; staff advised them to return with the item properly noticed next month and to meet setback conditions.
A property owner who had parked a fifth‑wheel trailer at 586 West 300 North asked the commission for permission to keep it on site temporarily. Commission members said the item could not be considered because it was not on the published agenda and state law requires noticed items for action.
The owner explained the trailer arrived during frozen ground in winter and that he planned to move it to the back of the lot in spring when access and power could be installed. Commissioners advised that the temporary placement would likely need to comply with the city’s definition of ‘‘temporary’’ (a six‑month limit in one reference) and standard setbacks; staff suggested changing the permit language from ‘‘temporary’’ to a one‑year conditional use permit if needed. The commission told the owner to appear on the next meeting agenda after moving the trailer to meet setback requirements and supply required paperwork.
Staff confirmed applicants must be on the agenda for the commission to act and asked the owner to return next month after meeting setbacks and submittal requirements.
