Jurisdiction and research scope
Town of Conway, New Hampshire, including its villages, only. This ordinary storage route is limited to the RA, CCVR, CVR and NCVR zoning districts; it does not cover every district or an approved camping use. Current online code read November 6, 2026; the complete publication amendment cutoff is not stated on the retrieved section. Storage clauses include the April 12, 2016 amendment. The new-laws list shows 2026 site-plan design amendments, not replacement of these Chapter 190 storage clauses.

Conway RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Driveway / yard | One RV accessory to a permitted residence in the reviewed residential districts. Vacant-lot storage is prohibited in these districts. |
| Street / loading | Public-street parking requires a separate traffic-code answer. No independent trip-loading exception is established by these provisions. |
| Sleeping / utilities | Stored RV must not be used for dwelling purposes. Parking permission does not authorize utility connections; confirm building, electrical, plumbing and wastewater requirements separately. |
Storage beside a permitted residence
The RA, CCVR, CVR and NCVR district provisions allow one travel trailer or RV to be stored on a lot as an accessory to a permitted residential use. It may not be used as a dwelling. Check the actual zoning district; a North Conway mailing address is not a separate municipal permission.
Vacant lots and construction
The same provisions prohibit RV or travel-trailer storage on vacant lots. A separate construction provision says a mobile home, travel trailer or RV may be permitted on a construction site for one year when necessary for the project and without public health or safety hazards. Obtain the Town’s determination rather than treating every vacant lot as a construction site.
Camping and utilities need their own review
Approved campgrounds, existing camping lots, floodplain requirements and rental occupancy have separate rules. A residential storage allowance does not authorize sleeping, water or sewer connections. Public-street loading and parking are outside these district storage clauses.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Conway Planning or Code Enforcement to confirm jurisdiction, the actual parcel or road, vehicle classification, position, duration and intended use. Obtain the required road, building, electrical, plumbing or wastewater approvals before relying on a parking exception. Easements, HOA rules and leases remain separate. Start with the official rule or permit guidance.
Use the Conway parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
