Hours of Operation

Park/Campground Program


The Clark County Board of Health conducts a Park/Campground Program which is state mandated under Ohio Revised Code Section 3729.  The rules for this program are prescribed under Ohio Administrative Code Chapter 3701-25.

 

Definitions

A “recreational vehicle park” is defined as a tract of land used for parking five or more self contained recreational vehicles. These vehicles can operate independent of connections to sewer and water and have plumbing fixtures or appliances that are connected to sewage holding tanks located within the vehicle.

A “recreation camp” is defined as a tract of land upon which five or more portable camping units are placed. These units include dependent recreational vehicles, tents, and portable sleeping equipment used for travel, recreation, or vacation purposes.

A “combined park-camp” is defined as any tract of land used for parking five or more self contained recreational vehicles or portable camping units that are used for recreation or vacation purposes.

A “temporary park-camp” is defined as a tract of land used for a period not to exceed a total of twenty-one days per calendar year for the purpose of parking five, but not more than seventy-five, recreational vehicles, dependent recreational vehicles, or portable camping unit, or any combination thereof, for one or more periods of time that do not exceed seven consecutive days.

 

License and Inspection

Licenses for these locations are valid until May 1st of each year. The license fee is determined by the number of lots in the park.  The current fees as established by the CCCHD Board of Health January 1, 2005 as:

Plans should be submitted to the Clark County Combined Health District at least fifteen days prior to the event. These lots should be licensed at least seven days prior to the event.
