Wapiti Park Conditional Use Permit - Continued Public Hearing The City Administrator indicated that at the March 19, 1984 City Council meeting, the City Council approved a variety of conditions for a conditional use permit for Wapiti Park Campgrounds and voted to continue the public hearing for the purpose of establishing an additional condition that would deal with the type of use and length of stay of individuals at the campground. The City Admin- istrator indicated that the length of stay is based upon the concern of people living there permanently in order to work in the surrounding area. The City Administrator indicated that after several discussions with the City's Attorney, it would be more appropriate to deal with the use of the vehicles within the campground rather than the length of stay.
