Jurisdiction and research scope
Town of Greece in Monroe County, New York only; not Rochester, neighboring towns or the country of Greece. Confirm the actual town boundary and parcel zoning before using the residential route. Current codified Town of Greece section 157-8, read November 6, 2026; chapter shows adopted 2025 amendments. This is property-maintenance guidance, not a complete zoning or occupancy approval.

Greece RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Driveway / yard | Preserve driveways, walks, fire lanes, required spaces and building exits. Resident-owned RV in usable condition with required New York licensing; tree-lawn restriction applies. |
| Street / loading | Residential premises allowance is not a public-street authorization. No separate RV loading time allowance is established by section 157-8C. |
| Sleeping / utilities | Sleeping and dwelling need a separate use determination. Utility connections are not authorized by the vehicle parking clause. |
Resident ownership and vehicle condition
The ordinary RV parking route in section 157-8C(4) requires ownership by a resident of the premises, condition suitable for the intended use, and licensing under New York regulations. The local definition includes travel and tent trailers, pickup campers and motor homes as well as several recreational trailers and equipment types. Unlicensed or junked motor vehicles have a separate section 157-8A route; a fitted cover by itself does not establish compliance.
Keep outdoor parking clear of access routes
Outdoor storage must not encroach on a pedestrian walk, fire lane, driveway or parking spaces needed for the zoning district. It must not interfere with safe use of adjoining property or public rights-of-way, or compromise a required building exit. Parking in the tree lawn is prohibited except when the town winter parking provisions are in effect. That seasonal exception does not waive the remaining safety or zoning requirements.
Garages, streets and occupied use
Garages for residents’ private noncommercial use are limited to four motor vehicles in total across all garages on the premises under the cited section. Confirm the vehicle classification and garage allowance before relying on enclosed storage. The residential RV allowance does not establish public-street parking, guest sleeping, ongoing residence or utility hookup permission. Obtain a separate town determination for those uses, as well as parcel-specific zoning and floodplain restrictions.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Greece 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 Greece parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
