Jurisdiction and research scope
City of D’Iberville corporate limits only. Official zoning compilation revised September 16, 2025 reviewed October 22, 2026.

Current parcel and later ordinance conditions remain separate.

What is D’Iberville’s home-use exception?
Section 13.1 normally requires temporary residential RV use to be in a legal recreational park. It then permits a self-contained RV to be used by an individual owner for no more than two consecutive days within a 30-day period, when parked on the property containing that owner’s principal residence. All of those facts matter; the exception does not say any guest may sleep in any homeowner’s driveway.
Which vehicles can qualify?
Article 3 defines a recreational vehicle without a size limit: a vehicle designed as a temporary dwelling for travel, recreation and vacation, whether self-propelled, towed or carried. It includes travel trailers and travel units. A boat, cargo trailer, manufactured home or other equipment is not automatically this class. Self-containment is an additional fact for the home exception.
How should the two-day and 30-day language be used?
Keep the entire stay and relevant earlier use within the 30-day period. The source says two consecutive days within a 30-day period; it does not create an unrestricted two-day allowance for each visitor or promise a reset after moving. Repeated or split stays need the City’s actual interpretation before the checker can treat the full plan as fitting the exception.
Can an RV become a long-term home or business?
Section 13.8.1 prohibits an RV as a permanent abode, dwelling or business, or for indefinite periods. It also addresses continuous occupancy beyond six months in 12-month periods. That longer park-related occupancy language does not enlarge the two-day private-home exception. Temporary parking, temporary accommodation and a permanent dwelling remain distinct uses.
What makes an RV park different from a private driveway?
Section 13.1 identifies AG, C-2 and I districts with Planning Commission and City Council approval for RV parks. The park standards include at least three acres and 40 sites, no more than 18 RVs per acre, and site dimensions and spacing. A residential lot does not become a legal park just because it has space or an electrical outlet.
Are the park pad and utility rules the home standard?
Section 13.3 specifies 1,500-square-foot park sites, 30-foot width, 10-foot separation and at least five feet to site lines, with asphalt/concrete parking. Section 13.9 separately governs park water, wastewater, electrical and gas systems. These are park standards, not automatic home permissions or substitute setbacks for a private lot.
What about storing an empty RV or parking on the street?
The examined Article 13 is not a complete unoccupied storage or curbside parking code. The checker therefore leaves driveway storage, street parking, loading and repairs unresolved under this guide. Ask Planning about the exact district, vehicle footprint, lawful parking surface and the distinct activity before treating an accommodation exception as storage permission.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask D’Iberville planning or code staff to confirm the exact address, actual vehicle class, full parking footprint, activity and any prior use counted by the source clock. Provide any actual permit and ask about later amendments, parcel restrictions and separate utility or accommodation approvals. Open the official provisions for the staff review.
Use the D’Iberville parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
