Energy Workers Want to Keep RV Park Open
Grand Junction Sentinel - Grand Junction,CO,USA
Dozens of energy workers wonder where they’ll live if a Meeker-area recreational vehicle park is forced to shut down in a month.
About 50 people, including workers and their spouses and children, filled a Rio Blanco County commissioners meeting Monday to ask the county to let a temporary 96-unit RV park west of Meeker continue operating after its permit expires July 31.
County Commission Chairman Forrest Nelson said it’s possible the county could approve a “very temporary” extension. But he said people have bought homes in a new subdivision by the park, with the understanding the park would be closing.
“They’re putting heat on us, too, so it’s not a one-sided deal,” Nelson said.
Park co-owner Ginny Love and her husband are developing the housing subdivision. She said they long have planned to remove the park and still intend to do so. She said they don’t want to close it until park residents have alternative places to live.
