Bar Nunn RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Town street | Separate 72-hour continuous and five-days-in-30 cumulative limits; signs and clearances still apply. |
| Corner or snow route | Keep out of the 30-foot sight triangle and do not park during an applicable snow restriction. |
| Dwelling on private property or a public street | Five days in any 60-day period outside an RV park. This is not short-stay permission. |
| Private driveway or yard storage | Town handout recognizes private parking, but parcel-specific zoning, consent, access and visibility need confirmation. |
| Issued street permit | Confirm exact conditions and interaction with the separate continuous-time rule. |
How long can an RV stay on a town street?
Two different clocks appear in the current code. Section 10-9-4(A)(1)(a) prohibits an RV or trailer remaining parked continuously for more than 72 hours on a town street. Section 10-9-3(E) separately prohibits more than five days in any 30-day period. The latter is not a calendar-month allowance. Being below one limit does not remove the other, signs, snow restrictions or clearance requirements. Section 10-9-5 separately authorizes impoundment after 72 continuous hours in the same place, so an exactly 72-hour stay is not a safe harbor.
Does moving an RV reset the 72-hour clock?
Do not assume that moving a few feet or driving briefly resets it. Section 10-9-4(A)(1)(a) says incidental movements between town-street locations do not stop the clock. Subsection (b), for movements of 30 minutes or less, contains inconsistent wording: it says movement excludes a violation but also says it does not toll the 72-hour limit. The checker leaves the continuous-time result unresolved whenever movement is involved. It can still identify an independently established cumulative-days, snow or sight-triangle violation. Ask the Town to resolve the exact trip and parking history.
Is there a permit for longer street storage?
Section 10-9-3(E)(1)-(2) describes an application to park in front of the owner's lot when the Chief of Town Maintenance determines the lot lacks space or access for storage. The applicant must obtain agreement from four of the five specified adjacent and opposite lots. Permits cannot be issued for an Arterial or Collector Street and last one consecutive five-month period in a calendar year, with annual renewal subject to the stated objection condition. An application, neighbor signatures or owning the property is not an issued permit. The checker does not decide whether a permit changes the separate 72-hour rule; claimed or issued authorizations require review of their actual scope and conditions.
Can guests sleep or live in a parked RV?
Section 10-9-3(E)(3) limits use of an RV as a dwelling on private property or a public street to five days in any 60-day period, except at an RV park. This is separate from the five-days-in-30 street-parking clock. Confirm whether the activity is dwelling use and how days are counted, including partial days and earlier stays. A brief nap is not automatically classified as dwelling by this screen. A stay of five days or less is not affirmative camping permission. The RV definition in section 8-2-1 separately prohibits using RVs as permanent dwellings or primary residences on a lot. The full definitions section was recovered in a targeted source check on November 9, 2026; this does not complete the parcel-specific zoning or later-legislation review. Confirm current requirements with the Town.
Can I keep an unoccupied RV in my driveway or yard?
The Town's currently linked RV handout says RVs can be parked on private property while warning about visibility for neighboring driveways. It does not supply a complete zoning, surface, setback or private-covenant review. The code also requires an owner's permission for a motor vehicle on private property. The checker therefore does not issue blanket home-storage approval. Keep the vehicle and appendages clear of sidewalks and the street, verify the actual property line and zoning, and do not treat storage as permission for sleeping, primary residence or water, power or sewer connections.
What about corner lots, slide-outs and snow routes?
Section 10-9-3(H) prohibits RV parking within the corner sight triangle formed by extending the curb faces, measuring back 30 feet along the intersecting streets and joining those points. This is a triangle, not a blanket 30-foot radius; uncertain boundaries need Town confirmation. The official handout also says slide-outs, steps and other appendages cannot extend into the street or block the sidewalk. Section 10-9-3(F) prohibits parking on designated snow routes during a snow emergency. The handout describes snow-event restrictions October 1 through March 31; the checker requires confirmation that the Town's applicable snow restriction is active rather than inferring it solely from the month or weather.
Are trailers, boats and loading treated differently?
Section 10-9-1 defines RV broadly, including pickup campers, motor homes, camping trailers, boats and trailers of any type. Its definition of parked excludes a temporary stop while actually receiving or discharging passengers, loading or unloading merchandise, obeying traffic controls or stopped involuntarily beyond the operator's control. Selecting loading alone does not prove that exclusion. The checker leaves excluded or uncertain stops for separate review. General rules also cover signs, yellow curbs, registration, sidewalks, hydrants, driveways, traffic clearance and private-property consent; these selected questions are not a complete parking inspection.
Which sources and dates does this guide use?
Reviewed October 25, 2026 against the codifier's 2025 S-2 edition, stated current through Ordinance 2024-02 of June 18, 2024. Chapter 9 sections show Ordinance 2022-07 of December 20, 2022. The pending-codification page listed no ordinances, but the Town's own ordinance archive had placeholder entries, so later-legislation coverage is incomplete. The linked undated handout supports the main street and clearance guidance, not every code detail. Confirm current rules with Town Hall before relying on a limit, permit or occupancy plan.

- Section 10-9-1: vehicle, street and parked definitions
2025 S-2; Ordinance 2022-07, December 20, 2022. Broad RV definition includes boats and trailers; actual temporary loading and certain involuntary stops are excluded from parked.
- Section 10-9-3: cumulative street days, dwelling use and clearance
2025 S-2; Ordinance 2022-07. Five days in any 30-day period on streets, a permit route, five days in any 60-day period dwelling limit outside RV parks, snow emergencies and corner triangle.
- Section 10-9-4: 72-hour street limit
2025 S-2; Ordinance 2022-07. More than 72 continuous hours. Incidental-movement wording in A(1)(a) and (b) is inconsistent, so moved-vehicle clock questions are not resolved.
- Section 10-9-5: vehicle removal authority
2025 S-2; Ordinance 2022-07. Same-place continuous parking for 72 hours can trigger impound authority, distinct from the more-than-72-hour prohibition.
- Town RV parking handout
Undated Town handout, currently linked from Public Info on October 25, 2026; file hosted in a September 2023 uploads path. This summary does not replace the code or establish parcel-specific private parking approval.
- Section 8-2-1: zoning definitions
Indexed official code text reviewed October 25, 2026; that review recorded section history Ordinance 2019-01, March 19, 2019. The full definitions section was recovered November 9, 2026 in the publisher’s 2025 S-2 edition. The RV definition prohibits permanent-dwelling or primary-residence use on a lot. This targeted recovery does not establish complete current zoning or later-legislation clearance.
- Ordinances pending codification
2025 S-2 page displayed no listed ordinance on October 25, 2026. This does not certify no later legislation exists.
- Town Council and current code link
Official Town page links American Legal code. Its ordinance listing shows placeholder test entries rather than a usable complete ordinance archive; later-legislation review is limited.
- Town public information and RV guidance
