On October 31, 2017 the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors adopted an urgency ordinance that allows residents affected by the Redwood Complex Fire to apply for an administrative permit for the installation, use and temporary occupancy of trailer coaches (which includes recreational vehicles and mobile homes) on properties destroyed or damaged and made uninhabitable by the Redwood Complex fire. Temporary trailers can also be located on a separate property and will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

Residents will not be required to pay any fees to file the administrative permit authorized by this urgency ordinance. Effected residents may apply for an administrative permit at no cost by filling out the permit form at Planning and Building Services located at 860 N. Bush St in Ukiah or at https://www.mendocinocounty.org/recover. To be eligible for this program, temporary trailer placement must meet the requirements for health and safety and will be subject to inspections by Planning and Building and Environmental Health.
