The administrative definition of caravan is also proposed to be deleted and replaced with an
administrative definition of RV (Recreational Vehicle) being
       "RV means a motorized or towable vehicle that combines transportation and temporary
       living quarters for travel, recreation and accommodation. The term includes caravans,
       campervans, motorhomes, camper trailers, truck mounted camper. The term does not
       include a cabin or transportable building as separately defined".
The proposed amendments are yet to be signed off by the State Government Minister for formal
public consultation.
Existing Approval for Self-Contained RV Stop in Cooroy
On the 18 December 2014, Council issued a development permit for an Undefined Use -
Temporary Short-Term Self Contained RV Stop at 154 Holts Rd, Cooroy. The approval was a 2
year development permit for up to 20 RVs with a maximum stay of 4 consecutive nights
(MCU14/0060). This RV stop is currently operating.


2.2. Background
The Combined Coastal Car Club has a 25 year Permit to Occupy until the year 2028 over part of
the site covered by the application (see Figure.2). The permit recognises the Car Club as the
primary occupant but the Club does not have “exclusive” rights to the site. The Permit to Occupy
requires them to also accommodate the needs of the Cooroy Horse & Pony Club in making the
space available for equestrian activities and parking for a minimum of 10 days per year.
