Camper Trailers on properties with no Homes, water or sewer
Tonight meeting centered around the writing of an Ordinance pertaining to the
regulation of trailers, campers,etc. It has been brought to attention of the Township of
this continuing , growing problem. We have been reviewing samples of Ordinances from
the area and are crafting one that truly meets our Townships needs. This will be an
on-going project. We hope next month to to able to review and decide on a basic needs
outline.This is a difficult topic particularly since our area, so many people have campers,
mobile homes etc. and use them in so many different aspects ranging from hunting,
family visits or storage when not in use. Our primary focus will be on use where proper
health code requirement are not met.
