Public streets and property condition
Section 238-2C prohibits boats, trailers, campers, motor homes, mobile homes and recreational vehicles on any public street, without a 24-foot exemption. Sections 238-6 and 238-7 separately restrict outside parking on privately owned vacant residential property and unlicensed, inoperative or discarded vehicles. This checker excludes those exceptional property and vehicle conditions rather than extending a temporary allowance to them.

The 24-foot and 120-hour boundaries
Section 238-2A requires a permit for outdoor storage of covered vehicles having an overall length greater than 24 feet. Storage means remaining on the premises longer than 120 hours. A vehicle exceeding 24 feet may temporarily park on private property for no more than 120 hours without that permit only if pedestrian and vehicle traffic are not impeded and all other code requirements are met. Exactly 24 feet does not trigger this large-vehicle provision; that is not proof that every other parking rule is satisfied.

Permitted storage is a separate route
Under §238-2B, the greater-than-24-foot permitted route requires ownership by an owner or occupant, limits a dwelling lot to one covered vehicle, preserves required parking and prohibits residential or temporary habitation. After 180 days measured from the day after permit issuance, rear-yard placement or a corner-lot side yard is required. Entirely enclosed garage, shed or barn storage has its own exception. Section 238-3 makes permits discretionary, imposes application and notice procedures, allows conditions and revocation, and limits a term to at most one year with annual renewal. This checker does not decide a permit application or authorize sleeping.
