Porter board votes to notify owner about RV residency at 318 South P Street
Summary
After staff reported an RV occupied as a residence at 318 South P Street (Porter Acres), the board voted to send the property owner a letter outlining Porter’s temporary RV residency permit requirements and extension process.
A code-enforcement concern at 318 South P Street prompted board action May 8 after Jackie Todd reported that an RV on the property was being used as a residence and two additional RVs were parked there. Town Clerk Shirley Herring told the board that under Porter’s Planning and Zoning regulations, living in an RV is allowed temporarily for those building a house or moving in a manufactured home but requires a permit valid for six months; owners must apply for an extension if construction or placement is not completed within that timeframe.
The board approved a motion by Mayor Steve Dickey, seconded by Norma Meyer, directing staff to send the property owner a letter stating the permit requirements for residential RV occupancy. The motion carried unanimously. The action documents the town’s use of its permitting process to address potential long-term RV residency in residential neighborhoods.
