North Carolina Officials Reject Proposed Campground Development

In Brief

Lenoir County commissioners denied a special-use permit for a campground on Cobb Road after residents raised concerns about traffic, safety, and drainage.

The Lenoir County Board of Commissioners (North Carolina) on Monday, August 17, denied a special-use permit for a proposed campground at 759 Cobb Road. The decision followed complaints from local residents about traffic, safety, drainage, and impact on the neighborhood.

The application, filed by property owner Richard Gould, proposed a small campground for RVs and tents on approximately 12 acres in an agricultural/rural district, including six full-hookup RV sites, tent areas, and a pond. Senior county planner Olivia John said the planning board had recommended approval without additional conditions. However, commissioners considered the required findings for the special-use permit individually, and after several findings failed, the board voted to deny.

RV Connection has opened a new location at 8183 Seymour Highway in Wichita Falls, Texas.

Pennsylvania-based Freedom Campers has previewed a prototype cubic camping pod measuring 72 x 89 inches (183 x 226 cm) with integrated roof mounting panels. A two-person rooftop tent is mounted directly to these panels, creating a two-story layout for up to four or five campers. The pod can be carried in a truck bed or towed on a trailer. An official launch is planned soon through select dealerships. For reference, the non-cubic 72 x 89 module introduced earlier this year starts at US$4,540.

Jayco has expanded its Jay Feather Air SL travel trailer lineup with the 17RBSL floorplan. The model, nearly 22 feet long and 8 feet wide, is the largest in the series but accommodates couples or small families rather than maximizing sleeping capacity. It has a GVWR of 3,750 lbs, with 830 lbs of cargo capacity. The interior features a north-south bed, modular sofa, removable table, split kitchen with a rear refrigerator, and a full-width rear bathroom with shower and toilet but no sink. Amenities include a tankless water heater, LED lighting, 19,000 BTU heating, 13,500 BTU cooling, 30 gallons of fresh water, and a 10-foot awning. The new unit is priced around $22,000. Sales have started, but dealer availability and interior images remain limited.
