Who and what qualify
Section 9-6-18 covers the owner’s own RV on their own residential property, outside O-1, B-1 and B-2. RV width cannot exceed eight feet, with gross weight at most 4,500 pounds or body length at most 29 feet. Required licenses, registration and stickers must be current.
Storage and loading
Outdoor storage belongs behind the principal building’s front line and at least five feet from side/rear lot lines. Loading anywhere on the premises lasts at most 24 hours per episode. Front-line loading requires hard or CA6-equivalent surface and clear traffic visibility; the text describes 25 feet from the back bumper as a rule of thumb.
Sleeping is not residence
The residential exception allows sleeping only for at most 14 days per calendar year, not dining or housekeeping. Section 3-11-6 separately prohibits mobile-home-style residential or business use. Neither provision gives street-parking or hookup permission.

Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the exact proposal with the municipal planning or police office. This limited administrative screening is not a permit or complete legal approval. The RV definition requires width at most eight feet AND either gross weight at most 4,500 pounds OR body length at most 29 feet. A larger vehicle is outside this checker, not automatically prohibited. The 25-foot front clearance is described as a rule of thumb, not an invented absolute statutory setback.
Use the Creve Coeur parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
