Edgar RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Side-yard storage needs a five-foot margin | Outside side-yard parking is a named route when the vehicle is no nearer than five feet to the lot line. A conforming enclosed structure is another route. These provisions do not create unrestricted rear-yard permission, and zoning, enclosure and parcel details still require confirmation. |
| A driveway is a fallback, not the first choice | The driveway route requires a hard surface or well-drained gravel; rear/side space must be unavailable or lack reasonable access, and indoor parking must not be possible. A corner lot is deemed to have rear access, and a fence does not necessarily defeat reasonable access. The unit must sit perpendicular to the front curb. The checker does not decide these discretionary access facts. |
| Keep the body fifteen feet from the curb and clear of public space | The vehicle body must be at least fifteen feet from the face of a curb, and no part may extend over a sidewalk or public right-of-way. Measuring only a tire position can miss a projecting body, hitch or rear rack. The checker tests reported curb and public-space facts, not a survey. |
| Sleeping is limited and cooking is excluded | The section allows parking only for storage, with an overnight sleeping exception capped at ten days in one calendar year. Cooking is not permitted. Ten nights is not a general dwelling or residency authorization; the checker flags a reported excess and leaves otherwise qualifying arrangements for local review. |
Confirm the village, district and vehicle
This guide concerns the Village of Edgar, Wisconsin. Section 13-1-125(b) addresses private property in residential and commercial districts. Its RV definitions include motorhomes, pickup coaches, folding campers and specified travel trailers; a travel trailer has a stated 10-to-36-foot length including the hitch and a width at most 8.5 feet. Confirm classification and jurisdiction before using the checker.
Side-yard storage needs a five-foot margin
Outside side-yard parking is a named route when the vehicle is no nearer than five feet to the lot line. A conforming enclosed structure is another route. These provisions do not create unrestricted rear-yard permission, and zoning, enclosure and parcel details still require confirmation.
A driveway is a fallback, not the first choice
The driveway route requires a hard surface or well-drained gravel; rear/side space must be unavailable or lack reasonable access, and indoor parking must not be possible. A corner lot is deemed to have rear access, and a fence does not necessarily defeat reasonable access. The unit must sit perpendicular to the front curb. The checker does not decide these discretionary access facts.
Keep the body fifteen feet from the curb and clear of public space
The vehicle body must be at least fifteen feet from the face of a curb, and no part may extend over a sidewalk or public right-of-way. Measuring only a tire position can miss a projecting body, hitch or rear rack. The checker tests reported curb and public-space facts, not a survey.
Sleeping is limited and cooking is excluded
The section allows parking only for storage, with an overnight sleeping exception capped at ten days in one calendar year. Cooking is not permitted. Ten nights is not a general dwelling or residency authorization; the checker flags a reported excess and leaves otherwise qualifying arrangements for local review.
Distinguish permanent utilities from loading preparation
Permanent sewer, water and electric connections are prohibited in the selected provision. Temporary electricity for charging batteries and other purposes is separately recognized. Active loading or unloading has a notwithstanding clause allowing placement anywhere on the premises and electricity or propane necessary to prepare for use. This checker leaves active-loading cases unresolved rather than applying ordinary storage restrictions through that exception.
Ownership and the edition limit still matter
The RV must belong to the resident on whose property it is stored. Goods, materials or equipment unrelated to the unit or its immediate use may not be stored in it. The linked 2025 S-2 code states legislation through November 10, 2025. Later changes and special documents need confirmation. No street-parking permission is inferred from this private-property section.
