Resident urges council to include RVs when revisiting tiny-house rules
Summary
During public comment, a resident asked the City of Crockett to ensure that recreational vehicles be covered alongside tiny houses in any updated local policy, citing RVs being used as residences and parked on driveways and streets.
A member of the public told the council during the Jan. 8 meeting that when the city revisits regulations on tiny houses it should also include recreational vehicles (RVs).
"I've talked with John about this. I was here a couple of years ago in reference to RVs that were being lived in in our neighborhood...And I'm just asking that you all take a look at that, not only with the tiny houses, but also with RVs," the commenter said, describing RVs being lived in on neighborhood streets and driveways.
The speaker said RVs are being used as residences in several neighborhoods, sometimes with people parking for a weekend or longer, and asked the council to ensure the city’s work on tiny-house rules explicitly covers RVs as well. The transcript records the public comment and the council’s brief thanks; there is no formal motion tied to the comment in the meeting record.
What comes next: the comment is part of the public record; the transcript does not record staff response beyond thanks or indicate whether council will direct staff to alter the tiny-house proposal to include RVs.
