Storage location and front-yard limits

Section 12-364 covers lots occupied by a dwelling, residential districts and streets/right-of-way within or adjacent to those districts. RVs may be parked inside or in a side or rear yard. Front-yard parking requires no available space or reasonable side/rear access and no possible inside parking. An alley-served or corner lot always has reasonable rear access, and a fence does not defeat access. The unit must be perpendicular to the front curb. The text joins its 15-foot body-to-curb condition and no-sidewalk-overhang provision with “or”; confirm that wording and actual placement with the City rather than assuming both are waived. Sight-triangle storage remains prohibited.

Active loading and connections

During active loading or unloading, a unit may be parked anywhere on the premises under the stated exception to the front-yard and use provisions. Electricity or propane is allowed when necessary to prepare the RV for use. This is an activity exception, not an invented number of hours or ordinary street-parking allowance. Outside that route, permanent sewer, water and electric connections are prohibited. Temporary electricity for charging and other purposes requires City electrical-inspector approval of both receptacle and RV connection.

Temporary dwelling and cooking

One RV may be used for dwelling purposes for a maximum of 14 days in any calendar year on a given lot. Cooking is prohibited in the RV at any time. This narrow exception does not approve permanent residence, an unsafe location or unapproved utility connections. Confirm how the City counts occupied days, health/wastewater requirements and every applicable approval before a stay. Mobile or trailer homes follow separate provisions.

Who to contact for your setup

Confirm the parcel, zoning, vehicle classification and proposed use with Duncan Planning or Code Enforcement. Check HOA, lease, fire-access and other site restrictions separately. Start with the official local guidance.

Use the Duncan parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
