Litchfield Park's planning and zoning commission voted Oct. 11 to clarify the city's ordinance on the storage of recreational vehicles, opting to adopt the strictest possible interpretation.
The ordinance, if adopted by city council, will mean that Litchfield residents stowing Rvs, boats, trailers or similar equipment on their property must find a way to shield their toys from view, or store them off-site.
The issue has been reverberating between city departments for the last 18 months and started with an “aggrieved neighbor” who complained to the city’s code enforcement department that an RV was visible from the owner’s property.
