Edgerton RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Five feet or a qualifying screened bufferyard | For residential, agricultural and conservation parcels with an existing principal structure, resident-owned equipment must be at least five feet from every property line unless screened with a bufferyard of at least 0.30 opacity. The screening exception is not a waiver of every other placement or parking requirement. |
| Front and required street yards have a 48-hour distinction | Equipment may not remain in a front yard or required street yard for more than 48 hours, except in designated parking spaces. Exactly 48 hours is not more than 48. A required street yard is a private-parcel zoning area, not permission to park on a public street. |
| Protect required parking and check ownership and condition | Equipment storage cannot occupy a minimum required parking space during its off-season. Motorhomes used year-round have an express exception for those areas. Outside storage generally must be of equipment owned by the resident, or the property owner where no resident exists. Equipment outside an enclosed building must be operable for its intended use. |
| Temporary hookups are not permanent residence permission | The code describes temporary hookups for loading and unloading for at most 72 hours, and an aggregate of fourteen days in any thirty-day period for sleeping where the RV belongs to the occupant or a guest, subject to the section. Temporary hookups must not cross public land such as a sidewalk or terrace. Permanent water, gas, electric and sanitary-sewer connections are excluded. The text also excludes permanent living and addresses sleeping and materials storage; the checker does not use the temporary clause to approve residence. |
Confirm Edgerton and the actual zoning
This guide concerns the City of Edgerton, Wisconsin, including its Rock and Dane County portions. Section 450-39F covers exterior recreational-equipment storage. Its examples include boats, snowmobiles, all-terrain vehicles, travel trailers, pop-up campers and motorhomes. Confirm municipal boundaries and zoning rather than relying on a postal address.
Five feet or a qualifying screened bufferyard
For residential, agricultural and conservation parcels with an existing principal structure, resident-owned equipment must be at least five feet from every property line unless screened with a bufferyard of at least 0.30 opacity. The screening exception is not a waiver of every other placement or parking requirement.
Front and required street yards have a 48-hour distinction
Equipment may not remain in a front yard or required street yard for more than 48 hours, except in designated parking spaces. Exactly 48 hours is not more than 48. A required street yard is a private-parcel zoning area, not permission to park on a public street.
Protect required parking and check ownership and condition
Equipment storage cannot occupy a minimum required parking space during its off-season. Motorhomes used year-round have an express exception for those areas. Outside storage generally must be of equipment owned by the resident, or the property owner where no resident exists. Equipment outside an enclosed building must be operable for its intended use.
Temporary hookups are not permanent residence permission
The code describes temporary hookups for loading and unloading for at most 72 hours, and an aggregate of fourteen days in any thirty-day period for sleeping where the RV belongs to the occupant or a guest, subject to the section. Temporary hookups must not cross public land such as a sidewalk or terrace. Permanent water, gas, electric and sanitary-sewer connections are excluded. The text also excludes permanent living and addresses sleeping and materials storage; the checker does not use the temporary clause to approve residence.
Vacant parcels have separate owner-only limits
In residential, agricultural and conservation districts without an existing principal structure, property-owner equipment cannot remain before construction for more than either fourteen days in a thirty-day period or sixty days per year. Under that condition, sleeping quarters are for the property owner only. This distinct route is described but left unresolved by the checker.
Business districts and disposal require separate review
Exterior storage is prohibited in industrial, commercial office and Historic Mixed-Use districts except businesses that sell, manufacture, repair or otherwise deal in recreational equipment. Effluent from recreational vehicles must be disposed of at the sewage treatment plant only. Neither a storage result nor a hookup checkbox approves disposal or a business exception.
Apply the newer off-street parking ordinance too
The posted code includes legislation through July 20, 2026. Later Ordinance 26-13, published August 19, amends §450-37: new parking and circulation areas generally need hard all-weather surfacing, with an A-1 exception stated for residential driveways; new residential driveways must be paved within one year of an occupancy permit. It also limits parking between the principal structure and street right-of-way to residential driveways or approved-site-plan parking lots, and bars private parking in public-right-of-way areas not explicitly designated by the Public Works Director. Later Ordinance 26-12 concerns nuisance enforcement. Both originals were reviewed; this selected checker does not certify all complementary parking or nuisance requirements.
