Jurisdiction and research scope
Village of Baldwinsville, New York. Only Chapter 331 conditions for outdoor recreation-oriented vehicles on residential dwelling premises are screened: front-of-house placement, the seasonal driveway route and its preparation waiver, and a single occupied guest RV. This does not establish general zoning, street, campground, building, utility or commercial-storage permission.
Local administrative screen only, not a permit, legal opinion or guarantee of lawful parking. Other local provisions, state law, actual approvals, road ownership, signs and private restrictions may add limits. An unknown result never establishes permission.

Front-of-house parking needs the established driveway
Check residential outdoor ROV placement
Section 331-3B(1) restricts outdoor recreation-oriented vehicles in the front yard or in front of a house in a residential district to the established driveway. Neither the street right-of-way between sidewalk and pavement nor any sidewalk may be occupied. Village property and Village rights-of-way are excluded.
The ROV definition covers seasonal recreational vehicles, camper trailers, boats and similar units kept fit for highway or waterway use; it excludes road-fit motorcycles. Current registration and inspection matter. Under §331-3B(1)(g), a unit lacking either is a nuisance vehicle unless indoors. Claimed not-in-use or historical-vehicle exemptions require actual official review, not self-designation.
Seasonal dates and a preparation waiver are separate
Check the seasonal driveway or preparation-waiver route
The established-driveway route lists summer-use ROVs from April 15 through November 15 and winter-use ROVs from November 15 through April 15. Confirm the vehicle’s actual seasonal class and all proposed dates; this screen does not infer that an RV belongs to both classes.
The Code Enforcement Officer may issue a preparation waiver totaling at most 30 days in one year. Covered preparation must be within two weeks before season start and/or two weeks after season end. This is not an automatic extra month or an occupancy waiver. Further exceptions require a Village Board petition and approval; an application alone is insufficient.
A guest stay is one occupied RV, free, and time-limited
Check the single occupied guest-RV conditions
Section 331-3B(1)(f) describes a single occupied camper trailer or RV on dwelling premises under the preceding conditions. Occupants must be the property owner’s guests. No charge may be made for either the location or offered facilities, and use cannot exceed 30 days in any one year. Count previous and proposed covered days together rather than restarting the limit for each arrival.
The numerical guest condition does not remove the placement, seasonal, registration or inspection requirements. Commercial storage, vehicle sales, historical vehicles, not-in-use exemptions and separately granted Board exceptions have distinct provisions and are not decided here. The enforcement notice’s five-business-day removal period is not permission to park unlawfully.
Who to contact for your setup
