Residents urge Harrison council to enforce red tag, stop unlicensed campground on Woodlawn Drive
Summary
Residents told the council that two unlicensed businesses — a campground and an RV park at 834 and 1260 Woodlawn Drive — are operating in a residential zone without permits and ignoring a red tag; speakers urged immediate punitive action to protect safety and infrastructure.
TJ Byrne told the council that residents of Harrison are raising serious concerns about two unlicensed businesses — a campground and an RV park — operating within city limits at 834 and 1260 Woodlawn Drive without proper permits and continuing development despite city-issued cease-and-desist letters. Byrne urged city officials and legal representatives to "take immediate punitive action to protect the safety, infrastructure, and residential integrity of the community."
Other residents reinforced safety complaints: Tim Schultz emphasized that "the City of Harrison’s official zoning map takes precedence over the Kootenai Title map" and said the property has been red-tagged and must pursue a zone change amendment to operate legally. Colson Schultz recounted that an intoxicated driver who could not find the campground "posed a clear danger to others on the road," and Angela Schultz warned campfires could start fires if brush is not cleared. The speakers asked the council to enforce zoning and the stop-work order.
