Draft limits RV occupancy to 14 consecutive days and 90 days per year, with construction and park exceptions
Summary
A draft would prohibit recreational vehicles from being used as permanent living, limit occupancy to 14 consecutive days and 90 days per calendar year, and allow exceptions during building construction or in permitted parks.
The draft repeats a countywide restriction that "Recreational Vehicles ... shall not be used at any place within the established boundaries of unincorporated Box Elder County, at any time, as permanent living." It also sets an occupancy limit: "Recreational vehicles shall not be occupied on a lot or parcel for more than 14 consecutive days and no more than 90 total days of any single calendar year." The text clarifies that the intended use is recreational and not for longer-term placement or full-time living.
The draft lists exceptions: an individual with a building permit may reside in an RV during construction for up to 365 days or until issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, whichever is less; long-term placement may occur in designated and permitted mobile home or RV parks; and agriculural workforce housing is explicitly listed as a separate exception. The draft also prohibits recreational vehicle dumping except at approved facilities and restricts RV storage to private lots where it does not violate other code sections.
If adopted, the change codifies commonly used limits and sets out the construction-related exception and park-based allowances. The draft does not describe enforcement mechanisms or penalties for violations in this section; enforcement references appear elsewhere in the draft.
