Land Use & Building - Camping & RV Occupancy

  • The County recently adopted updated regulations for Campground/RV Parks development. Campgrounds and RV Parks are permitted on Rural (RU) and Commercial (C) zoned property of at least 12 acres with a Special Use Permit. Both temporary and permanent structures are permissible, and water and sewer infrastructure is required.

  • Under no circumstances may an RV, camper, or tent be used as a permanent residence. If an individual is on a property in violation of these regulations they will be turned over to the Code Enforcement Officer, fined, and will eventually be taken to court.

    We do allow temporary RV occupancy under two instances:

    1. If there is an installed OWTS and the applicant may apply for a RV Temporary Use Permit which costs $120 and is only valid for 180-days per calendar year.
    2. If there is an installed OWTS, a well, and a valid building permit on file for a residence, they may apply for a RV Temporary Use Permit for Home Construction which costs $120 and is only valid for two years with a renewal each year.
