County schedules public hearing for private-use campground permit in Spoonwell
Summary
Staff presented information about CUP 499, where an applicant seeks a private-use campground with seven pads and on-site utilities for family/friends (no signage, no public rental). The county will hold a full public hearing on Feb. 8.
Lawrence County planning staff provided an informational review of Conditional Use Permit 499: an applicant (Mark) seeks a private-use campground on a property in Spoonwell limited to family and friends and not open to the public. Staff described an existing shop building and seven pads with electric and water connections; the application emphasizes no signage and no public rental. "This is one of those scenarios...they are requesting a private use campground for their family and friends. It's not open to the public," staff said, and noted the county must follow state rules when occupancy thresholds are exceeded.
The county confirmed the applicant posted notice and that the full public hearing is scheduled for Feb. 8 at 1:30 p.m. in this room, with the applicant able to present receipts for notifications. Board members discussed onsite inspection options but did not require an immediate site visit today; staff said conditions (no rental, no signage) could be included in a permit if approved. The item will return for a public hearing and formal decision on the February date.
