The purpose of the recreational vehicle (RV) park zoning regulation is to enable the orderly, safe, and nuisance-free development and use of RV parks. It is the intent of these regulations to preserve the integrity and attractiveness of the town and to maintain its orderly appearance.

"Building" means any structure enclosed and isolated by exterior walls constructed or used for residence, business, industry or other public or private purposes, or accessory thereto, including tents, cabins, lunch wagons, dining cars, trailers, and attached or unattached structures consisting of roof and supporting members, and similar structures whether stationary or movable.

"Cabin" means a building used of occupancies containing sleeping units where the occupants are primarily transient in nature and meet the state building codes for a residential building.

"Campground/RV parks" means land upon which shelters (such as tents, cabins, travel trailers and recreational vehicles) are erected and located for temporary occupation by transients and/or vacationers. They may include such permanent structures and facilities as are normally associated with the operation of a campground, including on-site housing for the manager.
