Vernon City Commission considers RV park zoning, sale of city buildings
The Vernon City Commission met June 23 to consider a slate of ordinances and property sales, including new rules for RV parks, updated septic hauler rates, a panhandling regulation, and the sale of two downtown buildings. Minutes from the meeting have not yet been published, so no final votes are available.
RV park zoning changes
The commission was scheduled to vote on Ordinance 1857, which would set a minimum acreage requirement for RV parks. A separate measure, Ordinance 1869, would grant a specific use permit for a seven-unit RV park in a Heavy Industrial zoning district. Both ordinances were on the agenda for consideration.
Other ordinances on the agenda
The agenda included three additional ordinances:
- Ordinance 1868, which would adjust rates for septic haulers.
- Ordinance 1870, which would regulate panhandling within the city.
No details about the proposed rate changes or panhandling restrictions were available in the meeting summary.
Property sales and financial assistance
The commission was also set to approve the sale of two city-owned buildings: the old City Hall and the Golden's Furniture building. The summary did not list the proposed sale prices or buyers.
In addition, the agenda included authorizing the city to seek financial assistance from the Texas Water Development Board. The nature of the assistance—whether a loan, grant, or other support—was not specified.
