The Fayette County Planning Commission approved an application Wednesday from JLB1 Properties to operate an RV park on Prairie Road in Union Township.
The park will be located between Vesey and Parrott Station roads. The Fayette County Zoning Commission previously recommended the project and approved a zoning change from agricultural use to regional commerce, according to Greg McCune, county building official.
The commission voted 5-1 in favor of the project, with six of the 12 attendees serving as voting members. Kyle Reed of JLB1 Properties presented a preliminary plat layout, which McCarty & Associates will complete for final review.
Reed addressed questions regarding management, fencing, and amenities. While the final number of recreational vehicles is undetermined due to space to be allocated for common areas—such as a central fire pit, dog walking area, and a potential pond—the initial plan accounts for approximately 70 spaces.
The park will have a 90-day residency rule and provide specialized signage for traffic control on Prairie Road, Reed said.
Plans for site construction include roads designed to accommodate emergency vehicles, such as fire trucks and ambulances. An existing on-site cabin will serve as the management office.
