Council adopts multisection code cleanup ordinance; clarifies RV permit provisions
Summary
Council adopted Ordinance 26-01 amending zoning, subdivision and floodplain code (TA-25-1), including new RV occupancy permit timing and setback rules; council waived three readings and approved the ordinance by title.
At a continued public hearing, the council considered TA-25-1, a multi-title text amendment to Bellevue City Code, covering titles for zoning, subdivision regulations and the flood damage prevention ordinance. Community Development Director Brian Parker reviewed changes, calling attention to a new provision on RV occupancy permits (14-day permit validity with a limit of one permit per 30 days and restrictions in certain setbacks). "Permits will have a 14-day lifespan and then a 16-day period where they cannot receive a second permit," Parker said, describing the intent to encourage compliance.
Council discussed enforcement, permit fees (staff indicated a $0 administrative fee initially to encourage compliance), and code enforcement mechanisms; staff confirmed there would be no change to existing enforcement provisions beyond the clarified permit rules. The council voted to waive three readings and to adopt Ordinance 26-01 by title; the mayor read the ordinance title aloud as required by Idaho procedure. The ordinance amendments will be effective upon passage and publication as provided by law.
