Board approves Special Exception to expand Wilson RV Park to 19 sites with conditions
Summary
The Board unanimously approved Henry Wilson's request to add nine campsites to his existing 10‑site campground (total 19) with 39 numbered conditions including erosion control, screening, road and site-size standards, insurance and occupancy rules.
The Mecklenburg County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to grant Henry Wilson a Special Exception Permit to expand Wilson RV Park from 10 to 19 campsites. The Board approved the expansion on motion of Supervisor David Brankley and adopted the Planning Commission's extensive list of conditions designed to limit environmental and neighborhood impacts.
The record lists the conditions in detail: the owner must submit an erosion and sediment control plan prior to construction, post bonds for infrastructure, screen publicly visible areas with a privacy fence, prevent sale or permanent leasing of sites, maintain 15 feet between RVs, construct roads at a minimum 30 feet wide with specified gravel base (2 inches railroad rock + 4 inches crush and run), and provide maps and contact information to emergency responders. The permit includes deadlines (nine campsites built upon approval; remaining nine within five years) and a nontransferability clause absent Board approval.
