RESOLUTION NO. ___________
MODIFYING RESOLUTION 2020-34 TO ALLOW RECREATIONAL VEHICLES AS TEMPORARY
HOUSING WITH REGISTRATION
WHEREAS, the Common Council adopted Resolution 2020-34 on
October 19, 2020 temporarily allowing the use of recreational vehicles for housing purposes, based
upon the need to respond to the regional housing shortage that was exacerbated by the Holiday Farm
Fire and economic instability of the COVID-19 pandemic;
WHEREAS, the Council has reviewed this temporary allowance on multiple occasions since and has
found that the allowance and guidelines are working to maintain health and safety for residents,
property owners, neighbors, and the public;
WHEREAS, the Council would like to understand the use of this temporary allowance and finds that
requiring registration can help inform the on-going need for this temporary housing; and
WHEREAS, the Council finds that it is in the public interest to continue to temporarily waive
enforcement of city ordinances that restrict use of recreational vehicles for housing purposes, provided
that the property owners and occupants adhere to the amended Guidelines in Exhibit A, including no-
cost registration,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SPRINGFIELD:
Section 1: Resolution 2020-34 to temporarily suspend enforcement of the prohibition of
recreational vehicle occupancy is hereby extended and modified to require the host property owners
and recreational vehicle occupants to abide by the amended Guidelines provided in Exhibit A, attached
hereto and incorporated by reference.
Section 2:The Council will review the impact of this resolution in 2023 to determine if this
resolution should remain in effect, if there should be adjustments to the Guidelines (Exhibit A), if the
City should consider any code amendments to allow for recreational vehicle occupancy on a more
permanent basis, or if staff should resume enforcement of the provisions of the Springfield
Development Code that prevent occupancy of recreational vehicles outside of those cases where it is
specifically allowed.
Section 3: This Resolution will take effect upon adoption by the Council.
ADOPTED by the Common Council of the City of Springfield this 5th day of December, 2022, by
