Jurisdiction and research scope
Town of Brownsburg only, not the broader Hendricks County mailing area. Traffic §72.10, Ordinance 2017-35 passed January 25, 2018; 2026 S-34 publication through Ordinance 2026-14, August 27, 2026. Town FAQ and posted UDO §3.8(I) disagree on temporary loading duration (six versus three days); no current numerical allowance is certified here. Reviewed November 6, 2026. The source edition is not a certification of all later amendments. Confirm the exact parcel, current zoning, private restrictions and road authority before relying on a parking arrangement.

Brownsburg RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Driveway / yard storage | Ordinary front-driveway storage not the described route. Paved side/rear, no front-façade projection or required setback encroachment; posted UDO cap two. |
| Street / loading | No ordinary RV/trailer parking; active loading exception. FAQ six days conflicts with posted UDO three days; confirm controlling adopted duration. |
| Sleeping / hookups | Stored RV living/sleeping prohibited. Posted UDO prohibits gas/electric/water/sanitary sewer connections. |
Street exception is for loading
Section 72.10 prohibits ordinary parking/storage of RVs and trailers on streets and alleys. Loading/unloading must not restrict traffic or sight lines at intersections and driveways. Other length restrictions in Chapter 72 may also matter.
Storage at the side or rear
The official FAQ describes paved side/rear placement with no part extending beyond the home’s front façade. The posted UDO additionally describes no more than two such vehicles, no required side/rear setback encroachment, and accessory-building storage. Stored vehicles cannot be used for living, sleeping or housekeeping; the UDO also bars utility hookups.
Conflicting duration statements
The FAQ says loading/unloading must not exceed six days, while the posted UDO says three days. Do not choose the longer statement as permission. Ask Development Services for the controlling adopted language and applicable traffic restrictions before leaving an RV in front or on a street between loading sessions.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Brownsburg Planning or Code Enforcement to confirm the governing parcel, district, vehicle classification, exact position, duration and intended use. Ask the road authority about street restrictions and the building or health official about utilities and occupied use. Private covenants, leases and easements remain separate.
Use the Brownsburg parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
