813.01 Standards

Recreational vehicle camping facilities shall comply with the following standards:

1. Location:  Inside an urban growth boundary, recreational vehicle camping facilities shall be located on a road with a functional classification of minor arterial or higher, and shall be no more than one-half mile from a road with a functional classification of major arterial or higher.  Outside an urban growth boundary, recreational vehicle camping facilities shall be located no more than one mile from a road with a functional classification of major arterial or higher.
2. Utilities:  Each recreational vehicle campsite shall include the following:
   1. Electrical service hookup;
   2. Potable water hookup; and
   3. Sewage disposal service.
3. Landscaping:  To the extent consistent with the applicable standards of Section 1009, Landscaping, landscaping shall be dispersed throughout the facility and shall be incorporated in each recreational vehicle campsite.
4. Accessory Uses:  The following accessory uses may be provided at a scale intended to serve the tenants of the recreational vehicle camping facility:
   1. One detached single-family dwelling or manufactured dwelling for a facility caretaker or manager in zoning districts that do not otherwise permit detached single-family dwellings or manufactured dwellings (e.g., the MR-2 District); however, this does not allow the maximum density standard in Section 1012, Lot Size and Density, to be exceeded.  (In zoning districts that otherwise permit a detached single-family dwelling or manufactured dwelling on a lot of record (e.g., the RA-1 District) the caretaker or manager may live in that dwelling, but this accessory use allowance would be redundant.);

   3. Recreational areas and equipment;
   4. Clubhouses;
   5. Tourist information centers;
   6. Laundry, restroom, and shower facilities;
