Andover Township RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Owner storage | One unoccupied travel trailer or motor home owned or rented by the property owner is the storage exception. A tenant’s ownership alone does not establish this condition. |
| Nonpaying guests | The additional occupied unit must house nonpaying guests of the property owner. Guest use is limited to two weeks in a calendar year, not two weeks per arrival. |
| Side or rear location | The exception requires compliance with the applicable side- or rear-yard setbacks. The checker does not invent one township-wide setback or apply the separate 21-foot vehicle rule to exempt motor homes. |
