One RV and resident ownership
Section 194-52.1 gives a resident owner of a residential lot a one-RV parking route. It does not establish a general allowance for tenants, visiting owners, multiple RVs or commercial vehicle storage. Confirm that the vehicle fits the Town rule before applying it.
Rear yard and actual setbacks
The vehicle must be in the rear yard and meet setbacks. The section does not give a single universal setback distance. Have the Town confirm the parcel zoning, applicable dimensions and actual parking position; a paved front driveway is not a substitute for the rear-yard condition.
Parking is not an occupied campsite
This narrow parking provision does not establish sleeping, dwelling, utility connections or a loading exception. Street parking, commercial lots and vacant land require separate rules. Special approvals and mobile-home placement should not be inferred from the inclusion of mobile homes in this parking section.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask East Fishkill 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 East Fishkill parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
