Board introduces zoning changes to clarify temporary use permits; adds private‑property conforming change
Summary
The board introduced Bill 106 to revise Title 18 rules on temporary use permits (clarifying caps: up to two events per year, maximum 30 days each, 60 days total) and directed a conforming change to make the rule explicitly apply to private property; the board voted to introduce the bill on first reading unanimously.
Staff presented an ordinance to clarify temporary use permits in Title 18 and to align zoning rules with Title 4 business licensing categories. Staff and multiple supervisors discussed the distinctions among "temporary use," "short‑term business" and "special event," using examples such as RV sales at a casino (temporary use) versus a downtown festival (special event).
The mayor asked the district attorney to make a conforming change to limit the temporary‑use language to private property; the board moved to introduce Bill 106 on first reading with that conforming change and approved the introduction unanimously. Staff said Title 18 provides regulatory "teeth" that complement the licensing provisions in Title 4 and that Title 18 would codify limits such as two events per year, no more than 30 days per event and a 60‑day annual cap.
