Storage on an occupied lot
Section 123-26A(2)(o) permits RV storage on lots occupied by a use, outside required front yards. A front-yard exception requires a Zoning Enforcement Officer finding about physical site limitations.
Temporary residential visits
On occupied residential lots, temporary occupancy is limited to two separate periods per calendar year, each no longer than fourteen days. Two periods are not an automatic continuous twenty-eight-day stay.
No permanent residence or shed
RVs cannot become permanent residences or storage sheds. The temporary-visit provision does not waive utility, sanitation, access or other applicable requirements. Confirm the district’s actual front-yard envelope before placement.
Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the exact address and proposal with the local planning or police office. This limited administrative screening is not a permit or complete legal approval. Required front-yard calculation, sanitation and hookups remain separate. February 2026 planning-consultant work is not itself adoption of a replacement law.
Use the Esopus Town parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
