Richland board schedules public hearing to extend campground moratorium by local law
Summary
The board set a Feb. 10 public hearing to extend by one year a moratorium on new recreational vehicle developments and campgrounds; the draft local law cites Town Law and Municipal Home Rule authority and will be filed with the Secretary of State if adopted.
The Town Board moved and voted to set a public hearing for Feb. 10, 2026, on a proposed local law that would extend a moratorium for one year on applications and construction of recreational vehicle developments and campgrounds. CEO/ZEO Jim Sprague said the moratorium extension is intended to allow the board time to review and possibly revise town regulations governing campgrounds.
Draft language attached to the meeting packet cites authority under Article 16 of Town Law and Municipal Home Rule Law; the local law text included in meeting materials states the moratorium will last one year from the effective date and may be renewed by resolution for an additional year. The board scheduled the hearing and voted 'AYE' in a roll call on the motion to set the hearing.
