Seasonal placement and driveway clearance
Outdoor storage ordinarily belongs behind the dwelling front plane and within applicable side/rear setbacks. Front-area driveway storage has an April 1 through November 1 exception. Any driveway placement must remain at least 15 feet from the nearest street, curb or pavement edge. Public sidewalks must remain unobstructed.
One unit, resident ownership and condition
A residential lot may have at most one covered ancillary vehicle, RV or boat stored outside. The vehicle must belong to a full-time resident, remain in good repair and working condition, and carry a current plate/registration or one from the previous 12 months. The garage qualification is outside this outdoor-storage screen.
Storage is not residential use
Section 275-9C prohibits fixed electricity, water, gas or sanitary connections and use for living or housekeeping on the premises. A favorable placement result does not authorize occupancy, hookups or a different district use.
Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the exact site, vehicle classification, current district and any required approvals with the Hilton local zoning or code-enforcement office before relying on this administrative screen.
Use the Hilton parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
