Commission approves conditional-use permit and variances to legalize existing RV park in commercial zone
Summary
SRF Consulting described three variances for an existing RV park and apartment units — a reduced campground area (about 56,000 sq ft vs. 90,000 sq ft code minimum), three non-highway-ready RV spaces, and existing metal siding on multifamily units — and the commission approved the conditional-use permit and variances to bring the property into zoning compliance.
Sarah Couture of SRF Consulting presented a conditional-use permit and three requested variances for an existing RV park and adjacent multifamily units in the commercial district. She told the commission that the code requires campgrounds to contain at least 90,000 square feet and a maximum of 15 campsites per gross acre, but the existing campground is "approximately the campground right now is 56,000 square feet, so they're requesting a variance from that." Couture also described requests for three spots allowed for non-highway-ready RVs and to waive the code prohibition on metal siding for existing multifamily units.
Planning and staff recommended approval to allow the property to come into compliance rather than force an immediate change in use. The commission moved to accept staff findings and approve the conditional-use permit and the three variances; the motion passed on a voice vote. Staff will record the variance approvals in the property file and note any conditions placed by planning.
