Afton RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Private driveway | Resolve overlap between front-yard ban and separately listed driveway route with City. |
| Private storage | Current plates or completely enclosed building; conjunctive size restriction applies. |
| Public street/alley | More than 24 hours prohibited. |
| Private occupancy | Seven consecutive/21 calendar-year days, owner notification, complaint restrictions and special-permit route. |
Public street and alley limit
Section 69.14(4) prohibits RV parking for more than 24 hours on a public street or alley. No loading exemption or restart interval is stated. Shorter parking must still comply with other rules.
Residential storage
Subsection 2 prohibits residential front-yard storage while separately listing side yard, rear, driveway or enclosed garage locations. Because driveway and front-yard descriptions may overlap, obtain the City’s placement interpretation rather than assuming every driveway is exempt.
Plates and oversized vehicles
RVs or trailers without current plates require a completely enclosed building. The oversize storage sentence uses the conjunction AND: it addresses a vehicle exceeding 40 feet in length and 14 feet in height. This screen does not turn either single measurement into an independent prohibition.
Private-property occupancy
Subsection 3 limits occupancy to seven consecutive days and 21 total days in the calendar year. The property owner must notify the Clerk of the period, and complaints can lead the City to restrict occupancy. Residents may apply for a special-use permit with Council approval for a longer stay; applying is not approval.
Generators and utilities
Generator use for RVs is prohibited under subsection 3. No utility connection permission follows from the occupancy limits or street parking threshold. The checker is deliberately restricted to the public street/alley time rule.
Source edition and limits
This guide uses the current homepage-linked October 2024 full code (through Ord. 272), not the older June 2023 file. Published 2025 and 2026 council minutes resolve later ordinances 273 and 278 as solid-waste fees, 274 sewer charges, 275–277 vacations, and 279 parcel rezoning; no §69.14 amendment identified through October 13, 2026. July 2026 camper-alley discussion was an individual purchase request declined due to utilities. This is not certification of unposted legislation or individual approvals.
Who to contact for your setup
Contact the city through the official source page with the exact address, vehicle, parking location and proposed activity before relying on an exception.
Use the Afton parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
