It looks like the draft RV ordinance that Clallam County (Wash.) Commissioners have worked so hard to advance is going to take a few steps back from its original lofty goals, according to Radio Pacific Inc.
When it comes to drafting the rules around allowing RVs, yurts or camping on private property, the biggest issues to tackle have been provisions of potable water and the handling of wastewater and gray water on rural properties.
Commissioners appeared to be making progress after running their proposals through the Planning Commission and holding several meetings of their own, including a public hearing.
But Commissioner Mark Ozias says the County Environmental Health Department only recently weighed in on several issues and that’s fueled the Board’s decision to reduce the scope.
Issue No. 1 is the problem of illegal RV parks on residential properties and, No. 2, clarifying what the regulations will be for people who want to live in a park model RV.
