Which RVs the section covers
Section 72.03 covers trucks, trailers, buses, RVs and tractors or tractor-trailer combinations wider, longer OR taller than a conventional station wagon or pickup truck. It does not set a numeric length, width or height. The checker requires the covered classification to be confirmed instead of inventing a dimensional threshold.
Residential and business districts differ
A covered vehicle cannot ordinarily park on a residential-district street or alley. In a business district, ordinary street or alley parking is limited to one hour. The delivery and merchandise-pickup exceptions permit only the necessary time in the ordinary course of business and require no interruption to traffic or traffic-safety hazard. These exceptions are referred for individual review.
Prior written Police Department permits
A prior written Police Department permit can authorize parking of a covered vehicle on streets or alleys in a residential or business district. The permit must state the location and duration. A permit application is not approval. This narrow parking provision does not authorize camping, living in an RV, private-yard storage or a violation of separate traffic controls.
Who to contact for your setup
