Commissioners approve zone change and conditional-use permit for 12-site RV park at 13139 US Hwy 189 in Daniel

Planning & Zoning Administrator Hayley Ruland presented Romack LLC's application to change zoning from A-1 to RS and to establish a 12-site RV park at 13139 US Hwy 189 in Daniel. Mike Jackson of Rio Verde Engineering represented the applicant; Chris Lacinic and other Planning & Zoning members provided input.

The board voted to approve the zone change (A-1 to RS) and conditioned it on development per the submitted master plan. The conditional‑use permit was approved with ten conditions requiring: (1) planning-and-fire review of any communal fire pit design; (2) a formal operating plan for gas cooking appliances submitted to planning and Sublette County Unified Fire; (3) an electrical plan approved by the Wyoming Department of Fire Protection and Electrical Safety; (4) a maintenance agreement with Mountain Meadows Subdivision and designation of Mountain Meadow Drive from HWY 189 to the park as primary ingress/egress; (5) dark‑sky friendly exterior lighting; (6) pets on leash; (7) quiet hours from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM; (8) no public dumping/dumping station at the septic hookups; (9) master-plan binding for the 12 sites (changes must return to Planning & Zoning); and (10) DEQ review of septic numbers through planning and zoning, with approval by DEQ required prior to county approval.

Commissioner Vickrey opposed the final CUP motion (final tally 4-1). A separate motion to require septic be upgraded to UIC requirements failed 3-2 (White, Bernard and Bradley opposed); the alternative motion requiring DEQ review of the submitted numbers passed 3-2 and was incorporated as condition 10.

The board instructed staff and the applicant to follow the listed conditions and to submit required design and approval letters to the planning office before construction-related work proceeds.
