Valley City Council OKs scaled-back version of controversial RV park

The Valley City Council has given preliminary approval to a scaled-back version of a controversial RV park along the Platte River. As tentatively approved at the council's Tuesday night meeting, the plan would allow up to 240 RVs along a 3/4- mile stretch of the river in western Douglas County. The site is located where West Maple Road dead-ends at the river and is immediately downstream of the residential area known as Sokol Camp. In the new version of the plan, developer Brad Brown removed airboat access, trimmed out at least 50 RV slots and pared back the camping season by a month. Under the new plan, campers would have access beginning May 1 instead of April 1. The vote to approve was 3-2. It was taken after little discussion by the council itself but extensive back and forth between those who opposed to the plan and the developer's attorney, Mark Novotny. Council members Mike Stanzel and Bryon Ueckert voted to approve the plan while Linda Lewis and Chris TenEyck voted against it.

Genius! Another trailer park next to a river...what could go wrong? And who do you think will eventually be asked for a handout when they get flooded?

Valley RV park developer moving on

VALLEY, Neb. (WOWT) - The developer of a proposed RV park near the Platte River is changing course. Brad Brown tells 6 News that about 90 acres of land where he planned to install more than 200 recreational vehicle campsites has been sold to someone else. A conditional use permit for the RV park is now before the Valley City Council. The city attorney confirms a motion rescinding any previous approval could be considered at the council meeting Tuesday night. The neighboring Sokol Camp residential area has fought the approval of the RV park and even filed a lawsuit to stop it.
