Where the special rule applies

Section 355.180 covers outdoor parking on property primarily used as residential and on property within 500 feet of it. Its street rule also uses a500-foot residential proximity. Other locations are not automatically unrestricted.

Street parking:24 hours

Within the covered residential proximity, temporary RV street parking is limited to 24 hours per occurrence and two occurrences per month. Signs, clearances and other parking restrictions remain applicable.

Off-street parking:72 hours

Outside a fully enclosed structure on covered property, the temporary exception is no more than 72 hours per occurrence and two occurrences per month. A driveway does not create an indefinite storage exception.

Two acres and enclosed structures

Properties of at least two acres are excluded from subsectionA1, but must follow other City parking requirements. Full enclosure also changes application of the outdoor restriction. Neither establishes sleeping or utility permission.

Leaving does not reset the occurrence

The clock starts when the RV first parks in a restricted area. It runs continuously through the specified24- or72-hour occurrence even when parking is intermittent. The code does not give an automatic reset for moving away and returning.

Vehicle definition and source coverage

The definition includes pleasure-use vehicles, boats, jet skis, their trailers and temporary-occupancy mobile structures; manufactured homes are excluded. The code includes legislation through September 8,2026. Seven listed later laws through October 19 concern road naming, agreements, tax, street acceptance and cyberoffenses; no selected RV clause amendment was identified. Sleeping, hookups and full zoning approval are not established here.

Who to contact for your setup

Ask Chesterfield officials to check the exact address, vehicle type, dates and intended use. Confirm signs, zoning and any later amendments before relying on a parking arrangement.
