Re: Use of a Travel Trailer as a Residence
Mr. Eagan,
The City of Yelm has received complaints again that a travel trailer located on your site
at 106 Yelm Avenue West is being used as a residence.
The use of any structure or vehicle as a residence must under State and Local laws meet
minimum requirements for habitation. Specifically heat, connected to domestic water
and sanitation services and provisions for trash removal.
Further more the use of a new residence is allowed in the Central Business district, your
zoning: however it must meet the requirements of the residential zones. Chapter
17.57.060 (C) of the Yelm Municipal Code prohibits the use of a recreational vehicle as
living quarters.
Please halt the use of the travel trailer as a residence. If you have any questions or I
may be of help I may be contracted at (360)458 -8407 or at garyc@ci.yelm.wa.us.
Thank you.
