recommendation remains the same,but we did reduce the number of conditions of approval as
requested by the Board of County Commissioners to reduce redundancy.
Planning staff recommends that the Planning &Zoning Commission send a recommendation of
APPROVAL to the Board of County Commissioners for File #102-CUP-24,a proposal to
modify three buildings,and add two additional buildings,with
Findings of Approval A through D

PROPOSAL:To make modifications to the Flat Creek RV Park in Thayne,Wyoming.The new
owners wish to improve the property by adding a new office,moving and expanding their
laundry and bathrooms,remodeling their storage building,and adding 10 storage units for
rentals.Details of each request is below;
Modification to Building #1 This is the storage pole barn at the rear of the property.The size
of this building is 32 X 62.This building is in much need of repair and is being used to store
seasonal equipment,and heavy equipment.The function of this building will remain the same,
we would like to fix it up,put garage doors on it and enclose it.
Modification to Building #2 This building includes the bathrooms,laundry room and the well
pump equipment.The size of this building is 10’X 30’.The laundry room is too small for the
amount of use it gets..We would like to eliminate the laundry and the bathrooms from this
building and put them in building #3.The proposed use for this building will be just to
accommodate the well pump equipment and storage.
Modification to Building #3 This building is currently being used as the office and storage.
The current size of this building is about 50’X 40’which includes a storage lean-to on one side
and a garage and lean-to on the other side.We would like to remove the garage and lean-to's on
both sides and convert this building into the new laundry facility and bathrooms.This will make
the new building size around 26’X 30’.
Addition of Building #4 This building will be a new addition to the park and will be the new
office and mail center.This building will be small.16’X 12’.We want the office to be in a better
and more visible location.This will also provide a better and safer place to drop off mail and
packages.
Addition of Building #5 This building will be a new addition to the park and will be a 10 unit
storage facility.This building will be 20’X 100’and will provide the opportunity for some of the
residents to store their personal belongings on site and help keep the park free of clutter.

is within the Mixed-Use zone and appropriate for the requested changes inside their RV Park.
