THE PROPOSED NEVADA COUNTY ALTERNATIVE/RV HOUSING ORDINANCE SETS OUT PROPOSED REGULATIONS THAT WOULD LEGALIZE LIVING IN RVS & TRAILERS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY IN THE UNINCORPORATED AREAS OF NEVADA COUNTY. THIS IS HOUSING FOR THE PEOPLE BY THE PEOPLE.

Draft Alternative Housing Ordinance

WE’VE BEEN THROUGH THREE PUBLIC HEARINGS, AND NOW, WE’RE WAITING FOR THE NEVADA COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION TO ANNOUNCE A PUBLIC HEARING SOMETIME IN NOVEMBER. THIS IS THE LAST STEP BEFORE THE ORDINANCE GOES BEFORE THE NEVADA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS FOR FINAL APPROVAL LATER THIS YEAR OR EARLY NEXT YEAR.

WE STARTED THIS IDEA IN 2019, AND NOW, IT IS UP TO US TO SHOW UP AND SPEAK UP AT THESE LAST TWO CRITICAL PUBLIC HEARINGS. PLEASE READ OUR TALKING POINTS IN FAVOR OF THE ORDINANCE AND THE AMENDMENTS WE ARE SUGGESTING.

When free enterprise and government can’t, don’t or won’t provide enough housing for all the people in our communities, the people have the right to find their own alternative housing.

And if they are living responsibly, they must not be punished, penalized, or forced to relocate when there is no place to go.

Likewise, people who rent alternative housing to people must not be punished or penalized if they are providing or hosting dwellings that meet emergency, code-equivalent, health & safety standards.

Because there is not enough housing for everyone, and because not everyone is housing-ready, safe parking lots and camps must be established.

Everybody has a right to be somewhere safe without fear of being forced to move.

It is not a crime to be homeless.
The crime is there are not enough homes.
