Applicant seeking assurance on RV‑park approval told to follow county ordinance, return with site plan

A resident relaying a message from applicant Clayton "Sammy" Hendricks told the commission the applicant wanted assurances that, if he followed county ordinances, his proposed 12‑site RV park off Beaver Creek Road would be approved and that he would not be required to pave the county road leading to the site.

Staff discussed the engineering and right‑of‑way constraints: the existing road has two 90‑degree turns and a 30‑foot right‑of‑way in places but was judged able to handle traffic for the proposed number of sites. Staff said the RV park review would proceed under the county’s RV ordinance and that interior roads for an RV park need not be paved under that ordinance; however, the subdivision ordinance includes a clause that could compel improvements to a county road if future expansion created an impact on the county‑maintained road.

The board did not grant a binding pre‑approval; commissioners asked the applicant to submit a formal site plan and permits. The board indicated a general willingness to proceed if the applicant follows the ordinance and completes required applications and reviews, but cautioned that requirements could change if the development scale increases in the future.
