Elon’s town council is considering amendments to its land management ordinance that would replace current restrictions on RVs, campers, and trailers. Under existing rules, RVs in residential areas must be garaged unless the owner obtains special permission. The new draft would allow parking in a residential driveway at least 20 feet from the road, but prohibits hookups to water or sewer services. Unlicensed or inoperable RVs would require a special use permit. The planning board unanimously recommended against the changes in August, preferring to regulate RVs under the town’s code of ordinances, but Mayor Emily Sharpe said that option had already been rejected. The council directed staff to make minor revisions before a final decision later this month.
