RE: /// Wheat Ridge Code, Se. 26.31.-Off-Street Parking of
Recreational Vehicles
DATE: August 14, 1993
Subsequent to adoption of Ordinance 924, which amended the Zoning
Ordinance relating to recreation vehicle parking, it was noted
that there may be a problem £or renters of property. The law as
written permits the parking of certain recreation vehicles "upon
property owned by the vehicle owner This does not
specifically permit a person who rents a•house to the .same
privilege.
Therefore, the attached proposed council bill further amends the
Zoning Ordinance to specifically allow renters to park on land
upon which they reside. .Due to potential problems with
multifamily parking lots, a specific exception is also provided.
It is my understanding that Council desires to review this
proposal prior to it-being submitted to Planning Commission for
public hearing, therefore it should be placed upon the September
City Council study session agenda, or upon the August 23rd
regular agenda as a decision item.

RE: Recreational Vehicle Parking Ordinance
DATE: September 24, 1993
Please find attached a copy of the revised Council Bill amending
the Recreation Vehicle Parking section of the Zoning Ordinance.
The only change from the September 7 Council meeting is the
reference to the sight distance triangle requirements at the end.
I believe .that was the only change requested.
if the issue is blocking views, then Council should consider a
greater setback requirement, such as 15 feet:
However, if also the issue is aesthetics, then Council should
prohibit these vehicles from parking anywhere in a front yard, or
side yard where such side yard fronts a street. They could allow
side yard parking adjacent to a street if the vehicles are parked
behind a six-foot solid fence.
Please-place this matter on the October study session for further
discussion.

TO: Planning Commission
FROM: len Gidley, Director of Planning & Development
RE: Case ZOA-94-4/Parking of Recreation Vehicles on
Residential Properties
DATE: May 26, 1994
About a year ago, you and City ,Council approved various
amendments to Sec. 26.31. O£f-Street Parking requirements
specifically regarding "residential" parking restrictions for
RV`s and utility trailers. Unfortunately, the language excluded
the right of a person who rents the dwelling where they live from
parking their own RV upon the premises as the language
specifically requires that only a "property owner" can park their
own RV. The attached proposed Council Bill revises this
provision to allow a tenant to park their RV if there is excess
parking space.
Additionally, the last sentence in the subsection has been
revised to consider sight distance triangle requirements, where
such requirements exist. This means that a person could not park
their RV within the regulated sight distance triangle at a street
intersection.
SUGGESTED MOTION•
I move to recommend approval to City Council Case No. ZOA-94-4, a
proposal to amend residential parking restrictions regarding
Recreation Vehicles.

Sec. 26.31. Off-Street Parking requirements specifically
regarding "residential" parking restrictions for RV's and utility
trailers. Unfortunately, the language excluded the right of a
person who rents the dwelling where they live from parking their
own RV upon the, premises as the language specifically requires
that only a "property owner" can park their own RV. The attached
proposed Council Bill revises this provision to allow a tenant to
park their RV if there is excess parking space.
Additionally, the last sentence in the subsection has been
revised to consider sight distance triangle requirements, where
such requirements exist. This means that a person could not park
their RV within the regulated sight distance triangle at a street
intersection.
Planning Commission reviewed this proposal and recommended
approval at a public hearing held on June 2, 1994 .
