Council approves special-use permit allowing existing RV occupancy at 1505 Ave B
Summary
The council approved a Special Use Permit allowing an existing RV to remain at 1505 Ave B with city utility connections; councilors debated long-term precedent and prior noncompliance before the motion carried on a roll-call vote.
Councilor Edward Charo moved to approve a Special Use Permit for property at 1505 Ave B that would formalize an existing RV occupancy connected to city utilities; Councilor Gustavo Castaneda seconded the motion and the council carried it on a roll-call vote.
Manager Shannon Cummins read the staff summary explaining the permit would allow the RV to remain subject to city regulations and utility requirements. Councilors discussed precedent and enforcement: Councilor Steve Almager said the owner had refused to seek a permit previously and that enforcement actions were prompted by complaint, while others argued for consistent treatment of long-standing occupants. The roll-call showed the motion passed with a majority and two dissenting votes recorded.
The approval does not change conditions requiring compliance with city utility and permitting requirements going forward; councilors flagged the need for clearer standards on RV hookups and tax collection to avoid unequal treatment in future cases.
