RECORDING FEE 0.00 Nt
RESOLUTION NO. 93-269
RESOLUTION TO AMEND THE MORAVE COUNTY ZONING ORDINANCE, SECTION 9
DEFINITIONS TRAVEL TRAILER TO INCLUDE "5TH WHEEL" AND
"MOTORHOME" .
WHEREAS, at the regular meeting of the Mohave County Board
of supervisors held on September 7, 1993, a public hearing was
conducted to determine the approval of the resolution to amend
the Mohave County zoning Ordinance Section 9 DEFINITIONS, TRAVEL
TRAILER, to include "5th Wheel and "Motorhome, and
WHEREAS, the zoning definitions in Section 9 of the Mohave
County Zoning Ordinance deals with and defines certain terms used
in the ordinance. These requirements were written along with the
County~s General Plan in 1965. At that time, the term "5th
wheel" was not invented nor was a motorhome the full service
mobile residence it is today, and
WHEREAS, since these vehicles are not defined in particular,
there is a certain amount of confusion with where, when and in
what zones they can be permitted, and
WHEREAS, taking the aforementioned changes into
consideration, it would be logical to expect minor amendments to
the 1965 ordinance. At present there are many 5th wheel and
motorhome travel trailers in the county and it would be
inappropriate not to include them in the definition under which
they belong, and
WHEREAS, Section 9 Definitions as currently stated, "Travel
Trailer: For the purpose of this ordinance, a travel trailer
shall mean a vacation or camping trailer, towed by another
vehicle, designed as temporary living quarters which does not
meet the defined requirements of a mobile home (see Mobile Home
Exhibit "A"), and
WHEREAS, amendment to Section 9 Definitions will state,f.
"Travel Trailer: For the purpose of this ordinance, a travel
trailer shall mean a vacation or camping trailer including 5th
wheel, towed by another vehicle, and motorhomes which are self-
propelled, designed as temporary living quarters which does not
meet the defined require\llents of a mobile home (see Mobile
Home) " .
