Polk County Commissioners Court approved an exemption request from Pemble Marina (located in Precinct 2) allowing the installation of electrical hookups at five existing RV sites.
Court materials show the RV park has existed for more than 30 years; the applicant requested an exemption from the current Polk County RV-park development-plan requirement for five sites that already have water and sewer connections and the necessary infrastructure for electricity. County staff said the General Land Services (GLS) review was favorable.
Commissioner Dubose brought the item forward and the court voted to approve the exemption. Court members recorded the motion and vote; staff said the installation will proceed under county permitting and that the exemption applies only to the five preexisting sites described in the request.
No public opposition was recorded in the meeting minutes for the exemption motion.
