The Brown County Plan Commission is seeking solutions to increasing complaints about people residing in RVs and campers, which are not legally recognized as habitable dwellings. The county's unwritten policy limits stays to one or two weeks, with the health department involved primarily due to illegal waste disposal issues. During a public meeting, residents expressed concerns about being forced to move from their campers on private property, citing rising housing costs. The commission did not pass any new ordinance and will reconvene after reviewing public feedback.
