A. Purpose of Regulating Recreational Vehicle Parking. Provisions for the size, number, and location of recreational vehicle parking in residential zones are intended to enforce community standards with regard to residential neighborhood aesthetics, traffic and pedestrian safety, and property maintenance.
B. Allowed Zones. The parking of recreational vehicles shall only be permitted in the R-E, R-1, and R-2 zones.
C. Restrictions on Obstructing Public Rights-of-Way. No recreational vehicle shall park on any public sidewalk or parkway right-of-way, nor extend from private property over any public right-of-way.
D. Permitted Parking Locations. Recreational vehicles shall only be parked either on a legal driveway within the front yard area, on an allowed paved surface within a side yard area, or the rear yard area.
E. Use as a Dwelling Prohibited. The use of recreational vehicle for dwelling purposes during storage on a residential property and the connection of utilities, water, or plumbing to a recreational vehicle, except for temporary maintenance purposes, are strictly prohibited. No electrical, plumbing, or other similar hook-ups shall be extended and/or used by the recreational vehicle, except as needed for any 72-hour period immediately preceding or following use of the recreational vehicle for its intended purpose off site.
F. Size Limitations. The provisions of this Section shall apply to recreational vehicles measuring no greater than 10 feet in width, 15 feet in height, and 40 feet in length. Any recreational vehicle exceeding any of these limits shall not be parked on any property zoned for residential use. (Ord. 935 § 3 (part), 2015)
