A Temporary Park Camp is a location where campers, vehicles or units are set up/parked to house workers during a fair, festival, carnival, rib cook-off or similar event.
A license is required if there are five (5) or more units on site. These camps are not allowed to be open and cannot be licensed for more than a total of seven (7) days.
Our staff conducts plan review and inspections, issues licenses and responds to nuisance complaints.
Application and Regulations
License and Inspections
In order to have a Temporary Park Camp, a license and plan review application must be submitted to the Health Department at least two (2) weeks before the event.
Time must be allowed for the review and approval of the submitted applications so that the camps can be licensed at least seven (7) days before the event.
The inspection includes an assessment of restroom facilities, safety of drinking water supply, waste water collection, trash collection areas, fire safety, and nuisance-related issues. Inspections are conducted before the event begins and then again as needed during the event.
The Temporary Park Camp license fee is $130.
