Council adopts RV regulation change for Rustic Ranches overlay

Wellington Village Council · January 12, 2026

Summary

On second reading the council adopted an amendment removing a two‑week‑per‑year RV restriction in the Rustic Ranches Overlay and making the area follow Equestrian Overlay RV rules (one to two RVs per property, up to six months with a special‑use permit). No public comment was received at second reading.

WELLINGTON, Fla. — On second reading Jan. 12 the Wellington Village Council adopted ordinance 2025‑20, a text amendment to Article 6 that removes a two‑week‑per‑year limit on recreational‑vehicle use in the Rustic Ranches Overlay Zoning District (RROZD).

Kelly Ferriolo, senior planner, explained the amendment was staff‑initiated and would cause Rustic Ranches to follow the Equestrian Overlay RV rules instead of the shorter two‑week limit currently in the RROZD. Under the Equestrian Overlay rules, property owners may have one to two RVs per property for up to six months per year with the issuance of a special‑use permit.

Ferrriolo told council there were no changes to the ordinance since first reading and that no public comments had been received. The council opened and closed the public hearing with no commenters and approved the ordinance on second reading by unanimous vote (5–0).

Outcome: Ordinance 2025‑20 takes effect as provided in the ordinance language; the change aligns Rustic Ranches RV regulations with the broader Equestrian Overlay standards and makes compliance and permitting consistent across equestrian overlay areas.
