This project is a County-initiated Zoning Code Amendment of the County’s Temporary Uses Ordinance, found
in Chapter 24, Article IV, Division 1, Section 24-174 of the Butte County Code. The Amendment would provide
greater clarity and consistency with permit provisions for the temporary occupancy of Recreational Vehicles on
residential building sites contained elsewhere throughout County Code. This Zoning Code Amendment was
initiated by Development Services staff, via the Zoning Administrator.
Staff recommends that the Commission find the Amendment exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15061(b)(3) – Common Sense Exemption.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: RECOMMEND ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION
A N A LY S I S
Purpose
Existing County regulations regarding the issuance of an administrative permit for the temporary placement of a
Recreational Vehicle on a residential building site have been problematic, in part due to the ambiguity arising
from different portions of the County Code being inconsistent with each other. Staff has identified the proposed
Zoning Code Amendment as the most reasonable way to resolve these inconsistencies and conflicts. The
Amendment makes reasonable allowance for factors affecting an owner-builder’s construction timeline which
are out of their control, while maintaining firm objective limitations on the duration and circumstances for the
1 of 3
Page 4 of 80
Butte County Initiated – PMISC-26-0005
Planning Commission Staff Report
October 22, 2026
temporary placement of Recreational Vehicles on residential building sites. The Amendment also alters some
language to be all-encompassing of the requirements established by other departments.
Applicable Zones
The amendment would be applicable to administrative permit applications for the temporary placement of
Recreational Vehicles on residential building sites, which are allowed in a variety of different zoning districts
throughout the County.
Agency Comments
As a minor amendment which primarily affects the Development Services Building Division and the Public Health
Environmental Health Division, this amendment was not distributed to any other departments or outside
agencies. The Zoning Code Amendment has been reviewed by Building and Environmental Health, and both
divisions are supportive of the proposed changes.
P R O P O S E D A ME N D ME N T
Proposed changes are limited to Section 24-174(E) of the Butte County Code, and specifically include the
following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
Changing the code reference to the proper name of the Environmental Health Division
Including more all-encompassing language regarding the requirements of Environmental Health, so that
any future changes to permitting or procedures on their part do not require further amendment of this
code section
Making it clear that a permanent potable water supply and wastewater disposal is required for the
temporary placement of a Recreational Vehicle
Allowing the administrative permit to be extended twice (rather than once) upon demonstration of physical
or financial hardship by the applicant, for a potential total placement time of three years rather than two
Altering the prerequisite condition from residential building permit issuance to residential building permit
application for approval of an administrative permit for temporary Recreational Vehicle placement
Specifying certain construction milestones (foundation, framing, etc.) which must be completed within the
first six months of building permit issuance
The proposed amendment is provided as Attachment B (Ordinance with edits). The substantive portions of the
amendment are found on found on pages 1 and 2.
FI N D I N G S
All required findings for approval of the Zoning Code Amendment are found in the Planning Commission
resolution, provided as Attachment A. These include a determination that the project is exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (Common
Sense Exemption), as well as required findings contained in Butte County Code section 24-275 regarding
General Plan consistency, Zoning Ordinance consistency, and the Amendment not being detrimental to the

public interest, health, safety, or welfare. Staff believes that all of these findings can be made, and has provided
specific language for each finding in the resolution.
P U B LI C O U T R E A C H
The Planning Division published a 20-day notice prior to the Planning Commission hearing, as required by State
law, in all three newspapers of general circulation in Butte County. No additional outreach has occurred due to
the minor nature of the proposed amendment.
P U B LI C C O M ME N T
No public comments have been received as of the drafting of this Agenda Report.
S T A F F R E C O M ME N D A T I O N
Staff recommends approval of the proposed County-initiated Zoning Code Amendment.
Recommended Motion:
“I move that the Planning Commission adopt the resolution provided as Attachment A to the staff report,
determining that the project is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (Common
Sense Exemption) and recommending that the Board of Supervisors adopt the proposed Zoning Code
Amendment to Butte County Code Chapter 24, Article IV, Division 1, Section 24-174 (Temporary Uses) as shown
in Exhibit A of the resolution, subject to the findings contained therein.”

RECOMMENDING THAT THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS: ADOPT AMENDMENTS TO BUTTE
COUNTY CODE, CHAPTER 24 (ZONING), ARTICLE IV, DIVISION 1, SECTION 24-174
(TEMPORARY USES)
WHEREAS, Chapter 24 of the Butte County Code governs zoning and land use in the
unincorporated areas of Butte County; and
WHEREAS, from time-to-time County-initiated Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance
are required to address a variety of needed updates including but not limited to establishing
land uses and land use compatibility standards, legal compliance, and other issues that arise;
and
WHEREAS, consistent with Butte County Code section 24-273, the Planning Commission
shall conduct a public hearing on any proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment in compliance
with Butte County Code section 24-258 et al. (Public Notices and Hearings), and shall forward a
written recommendation with applicable findings in support thereof to the Board of
Supervisors; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Amendment will update the Temporary Uses Ordinance to
provide greater clarity and consistency with permit provisions for the temporary occupancy of
Recreational Vehicles on residential building sites contained elsewhere throughout County
Code; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Amendment was requested by the Zoning Administrator,
consistent with Butte County Code section 24-271.D.3.; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing to consider the
Amendment on October 22, 2026; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the information in
the administrative record, reports, and all oral and written testimony presented to the Planning
Commission regarding the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment; and
WHEREAS, based on review of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Guidelines, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the proposed Zoning Ordinance
Amendment, which would provide clarity and consistency with permit provisions for temporary
occupancy of Recreational Vehicles on residential building sites contained elsewhere
throughout County Code, is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section
Page 8 of 80
15061(b)(3), which exempts activities covered by the rule that CEQA applies only to projects
with the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment; and
WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission hereby recommends to the
Board of Supervisors the following findings set forth in Butte County Code section 24-275:
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable
community or specific plan as provided by Government Code Section 65860.2.
The proposed amendment would provide clarity and consistency with permit
provisions for temporary occupancy of Recreational Vehicles on residential building
sites contained elsewhere throughout County Code. The amendment is minimal in
scope, and not directly addressed by any specific Polices contained in the Butte
County General Plan 2040 (“GP2040”). However, it is consistent with and supportive
of broader planning themes in the GP2040, including Goals LU-2 (“Provide for orderly,
well-planned and balanced growth that maintains private property rights”), LU-8
(“Promote development near existing infrastructure and services”), H-5 (“Facilitate
rebuilding of communities impacted by wildfires”), and EJ-5 (“Provide Communities
of Opportunity with access to safe and sanitary housing”).
No inconsistencies have been identified between the proposed amendment, which
would provide clarity and consistency with permit provisions for temporary
occupancy of Recreational Vehicles on residential building sites contained elsewhere
throughout County Code, and applicable community or specific plans as provided by
Government Code Section 65860.2.
2. The proposed amendment will not be detrimental to the public interest, health,
safety, or welfare of the county.
The proposed amendment would provide clarity and consistency with permit
provisions for temporary occupancy of Recreational Vehicles on residential building
sites contained elsewhere throughout County Code. Creating greater clarity and
consistency between various portions of the County Code which regulate different
aspects of this temporary use is in the public interest, and will simplify the application
and enforcement of other code provisions which cumulatively address health, safety,
and welfare issues associated with this temporary use.
3. The proposed amendment is internally consistent with other applicable provisions of
the Zoning Ordinance.
The proposed amendment would provide clarity and consistency with permit
provisions for temporary occupancy of Recreational Vehicles on residential building
sites contained elsewhere throughout County Code, and is written specifically to
remove inconsistencies between various portions of the County Code.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission hereby
recommends that the Board of Supervisors adopt the Zoning Code Amendment, as shown in
Exhibit A.

Zoning Code Amendment: Recreational Vehicles (PMISC-26-0005)
Project Description
This project is a County-initiated Zoning Code Amendment of the County’s Temporary Uses
Ordinance, found in Chapter 24, Article IV, Division 1, Section 24-174 of the Butte County Code.
The Amendment would provide greater clarity and consistency with permit provisions for the
temporary occupancy of Recreational Vehicles on residential building sites contained elsewhere
throughout County Code. This Zoning Code Amendment was initiated by Development Services
staff, via the Zoning Administrator.
Page 26 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Recreational Vehicles (PMISC-26-0005)
Project Setting
• All zoning districts County-wide that allow construction of a residence
Page 27 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Recreational Vehicles (PMISC-26-0005)
Analysis – Zoning
• Existing County regulations for the temporary placement of a Recreational Vehicle on a
residential building site have been problematic, in part due to the ambiguity arising from
different portions of the County Code being inconsistent with each other
• The proposed Zoning Code Amendment appears to be the most reasonable way to resolve
these inconsistencies and conflicts
• Makes reasonable allowance for factors affecting an owner-builder’s construction timeline
which are out of their control, while maintaining firm objective limitations on the duration and
circumstances
• Modifies language to accommodate any future Environmental Health changes
• Amendments have been reviewed by Building and Environmental Health, both of which are
supportive of the proposed changes
Page 28 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Recreational Vehicles (PMISC-26-0005)
Analysis – Amendment
• Changes the code reference to the proper name of the Environmental Health Division
• Includes more all-encompassing language for Environmental Health, so that any future changes to
permitting or procedures on their part do not require further amendment of this Code section
• Makes it clear that a permanent potable water supply and wastewater disposal is required
• Allows the administrative permit to be extended twice (rather than once) upon demonstration of
physical or financial hardship, for a potential total placement time of three years rather than two
• Alters the prerequisite from residential building permit issuance to residential building permit
application for approval of an administrative permit for temporary Recreational Vehicle placement
• Specifies certain construction milestones (foundation, framing, etc.) which must be completed within
the first six months of building permit issuance
Page 29 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Recreational Vehicles (PMISC-26-0005)
Analysis – Findings
• General Plan Consistency
• Consistent with GP2040 Goals LU-2, LU-8, H-5, and EJ-5
• No effect on community or specific plans
• Not detrimental to public interest, health, safety, or welfare
• Amendment provides greater clarity and consistency, which is in the public interest, and results in less
problematic enforcement of regulations which cumulatively address health, safety, and welfare
• Internally consistent with other applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance
• Written specifically to remove inconsistencies between various portions of County Code
Page 30 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Recreational Vehicles (PMISC-26-0005)
Analysis – CEQA
• The project has been determined to be exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption)
Page 31 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Recreational Vehicles (PMISC-26-0005)
Community Outreach
• The Planning Division published a 20-day notice prior to the Planning Commission hearing, as
required by State law, in all three newspapers of general circulation in Butte County. No
additional outreach has occurred due to the minor scope of the proposed amendment.

Article IV, Division 2, to require alternative site analysis for new telecommunications towers in all zoning
districts. The telecommunication facilities ordinance was originally adopted in 2013 and later amended to align
with state and federal law. This code amendment has been determined to be exempt from the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the CEQA
Guidelines.
Fiscal Impact:
Does not apply.
Personnel Impact:
Does not apply.
Action Requested:

This project is a County-initiated Zoning Code Amendment of the County’s Wireless Telecommunications
Ordinance, found in Chapter 24, Article IV, Division 2 of the Butte County Code. The Amendment would require
an alternatives analysis and additional network information to be submitted with most applications for new
telecommunications facilities; current code only requires this information for facilities proposed in more sensitive
locations, such as being in a residential zoning district. The Board of Supervisors requested that the Code be
amended in this way during its meeting on September 22nd, 2026.
Staff recommends that the Commission find the Amendment exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15061(b)(3) – Common Sense Exemption.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: RECOMMEND ADOPTION OF RESOLUTION
A N A LY S I S
Purpose
The proposed Zoning Code Amendment would specify that new applications for telecommunications facilities,
regardless of zoning district, must include additional information regarding existing telecommunications sites
1 of 3
Page 38 of 80
Butte County Initiated – PMISC-26-0006
Planning Commission Staff Report
October 22, 2026
within two miles, must identify at least three additional alternative sites beyond those nearby telecommunications
sites, and must provide a statement why these alternative sites or co-location opportunities were rejected. This
information, specified in Butte County Code 24-180.A.12., is already required for telecommunications facilities
proposed in a residential zone, within 1,000 feet of a residential zone, or near an airport. The amendment simply
expands this requirement to all telecommunications facility applications, regardless of zoning district; this is
accomplished by removing the limiting clause at the start of 24-180.A.12., found on page 3 of the strikeout
version of the Ordinance, provided as Attachment B. Including this information in new applications for
telecommunications facilities would allow for a more informed decision-making process by the County when
considering approval of such facilities.
The Board of Supervisors requested that the Code be amended in this way during its meeting on September
22nd, 2026. Such requests to amend the Zoning Ordinance are anticipated and specifically allowed by Butte
County Code section 24-271.D.1.
Staff also noted a reference to an outdated code section in the Telecommunications Facilities Ordinance, as well
as a clearly erroneous typographic error; correction of these nonsubstantive matters is included in the proposed
ordinance.
Applicable Zones
The amendment would be applicable to new applications for telecommunications facilities in all zoning districts.
Agency Comments
As a minor amendment affecting only the information that is submitted with an application, this amendment has
not been submitted to any other departments or agencies for comments.
P R O P O S E D A ME N D ME N T
The proposed amendment is provided as Attachment B (Ordinance with edits). The substantive portion of the
amendment is found on page 3, which removes the limiting clause at the start of section 24-180-A.12., thereby
requiring the additional information mentioned in that section to be submitted with all applications, regardless of
zoning district. The nonsubstantive, cleanup portions of the amendment are found on pages 1 and 4.
FI N D I N G S
All required findings for approval of the Zoning Code Amendment are found in the Planning Commission
resolution, provided as Attachment A. These include a determination that the project is exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (Common
Sense Exemption), as well as required findings contained in Butte County Code section 24-275 regarding
General Plan consistency, Zoning Ordinance consistency, and the Amendment not being detrimental to the
public interest, health, safety, or welfare. Staff believes that all of these findings can be made, and has provided
specific language for each finding in the resolution.

RECOMMENDING THAT THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS: ADOPT AMENDMENTS TO BUTTE
COUNTY CODE, CHAPTER 24 (ZONING), ARTICLE IV, DIVISION 2 (TELECOMMUNICATIONS
FACILITIES)
WHEREAS, Chapter 24 of the Butte County Code governs zoning and land use in the
unincorporated areas of Butte County; and
WHEREAS, from time-to-time County-initiated Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance
are required to address a variety of needed updates including but not limited to establishing
land uses and land use compatibility standards, legal compliance, and other issues that arise;
and
WHEREAS, consistent with Butte County Code section 24-273, the Planning Commission
shall conduct a public hearing on any proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment in compliance
with Butte County Code section 24-258 et al. (Public Notices and Hearings), and shall forward a
written recommendation with applicable findings in support thereof to the Board of
Supervisors; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Amendment will update the Telecommunications Facilities
Ordinance to require additional information to be submitted with certain types of applications
for telecommunications facilities; and
WHEREAS, the proposed Amendment was requested by the Board of Supervisors on
September 22, 2026, consistent with Butte County Code section 24-271.D.1.; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing to consider the
Amendment on October 22, 2026; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has reviewed and considered the information in
the administrative record, reports, and all oral and written testimony presented to the Planning
Commission regarding the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendment; and
WHEREAS, based on review of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Guidelines, the Planning Commission finds and determines that the proposed Zoning Ordinance
Amendment, which modifies the amount of information required to accompany certain
applications for telecommunications facilities, is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), which exempts activities covered by the rule that CEQA applies
only to projects with the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment; and
Page 42 of 80
WHEREAS, all legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission hereby recommends to the
Board of Supervisors the following findings set forth in Butte County Code section 24-275:
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable
community or specific plan as provided by Government Code Section 65860.2.
The proposed amendment would modify and potentially increase the amount of
information required to accompany certain applications for telecommunications
facilities. The amendment is minimal in scope, and not directly addressed by any
specific Polices contained in the Butte County General Plan 2040 (“GP2040”).
However, it is consistent with and supportive of broader planning themes in the
GP2040, including Goals LU-2 (“Provide for orderly, well-planned and balanced
growth that maintains private property rights”), LU-7 (“Promote public participation
in the County’s planning processes”), LU-8 (“Promote development near existing
infrastructure and services”), and LU-12 (“Coordinate planning efforts within the
county and region”).
No inconsistencies have been identified between the proposed amendment, which
requires that additional information be submitted with certain applications for
telecommunications facilities, and applicable community or specific plans as provided
by Government Code Section 65860.2.
2. The proposed amendment will not be detrimental to the public interest, health,
safety, or welfare of the county.
The proposed amendment would modify and potentially increase the amount of
information required to accompany certain applications for telecommunications
facilities. The additional information would allow the County to make better
informed decisions when considering the approval of certain types of
telecommunications facilities, which is in the public interest. No detrimental health,
safety, or welfare issues have been identified as a consequence of requiring additional
information to be submitted with a telecommunications facility application.
3. The proposed amendment is internally consistent with other applicable provisions of
the Zoning Ordinance.
The proposed amendment would modify and potentially increase the amount of
information required to accompany certain applications for telecommunications
facilities. The amendment is minimal in scope, introduces no new code sections, and
therefore maintains consistency with other applicable provisions of the Zoning
Ordinance.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Planning Commission hereby
recommends that the Board of Supervisors adopt the Zoning Code Amendment, as shown in
Exhibit A.

Recommendation
Recommended Motion:
“I move that the Planning Commission adopt the resolution provided as Attachment A to the

Zoning Code Amendment: Telecommunications Facilities (PMISC-26-0006)
Project Description
This project is a County-initiated Zoning Code Amendment of the County’s Wireless
Telecommunications Ordinance, found in Chapter 24, Article IV, Division 2 of the Butte County
Code. The Amendment would require an alternative site analysis and additional network
information to be submitted with most applications for new telecommunications facilities; current
code only requires this information for facilities proposed in more sensitive locations, such as
being in a residential zoning district.
Page 66 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Telecommunications Facilities (PMISC-26-0006)
Project Setting
• All zoning districts County-wide
Page 67 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Telecommunications Facilities (PMISC-26-0006)
Analysis – Zoning
• Proposed Zoning Code Amendment would specify that new applications for
telecommunications facilities, regardless of zoning district, must include additional information
regarding existing telecommunications sites within two miles, must identify at least three
additional alternative sites beyond those nearby telecommunications sites, and must provide a
statement why these alternative sites or co-location opportunities were rejected
• This information is already required for telecommunications facilities proposed in a residential
zone, within 1,000 feet of a residential zone, or near an airport; amendment expands this
requirement to all zoning districts
• Two nonsubstantive errors also being corrected
• Amendment requested by Board of Supervisors
Page 68 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Telecommunications Facilities (PMISC-26-0006)
Analysis – Findings
• General Plan Consistency
• Consistent with GP2040 Goals LU-2, LU-7, LU-8, and LU-12
• No effect on community or specific plans
• Not detrimental to public interest, health, safety, or welfare
• Amendment requires additional information to be submitted, allowing for better informed
decision making, which is in the public interest
• No issues identified with health, safety, and welfare
• Internally consistent with other applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance
• Minimal in scope, introduces no new sections, remains internally consistent
Page 69 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Telecommunications Facilities (PMISC-26-0006)
Analysis – CEQA
• The project has been determined to be exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines
Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption).
Page 70 of 80
Zoning Code Amendment: Telecommunications Facilities (PMISC-26-0006)
Community Outreach
• The Planning Division published a 20-day notice prior to the Planning Commission hearing, as
required by State law, in all three newspapers of general circulation in Butte County. No
additional outreach has occurred due to the minor, informational nature of the proposed
amendment.
