Irvington Village RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Driveway | A driveway alone is not permission. Outdoor trailer storage must satisfy the rear-line band and remaining restrictions. |
| Yard | Outdoor storage requires the 8–25-foot rear-line band and a nonvacant lot. |
| Street | Not evaluated by this private-property trailer screen. |
| Guest | The occupancy prohibition has no guest-duration exception in the cited clause. |
Outdoor rear-line band and enclosed garages
Section 224-49 identifies two storage locations: an enclosed garage, or an outdoor location at least 8 feet and no more than 25 feet from the rear lot line. The outdoor rule has both a minimum and a maximum; it is not simply an 8-foot setback. Confirm the applicable measurement and any more restrictive district or buffer provision before placing a trailer.
Vacant lots and unlocked or active trailers
The same section prohibits storing a trailer or boat on a vacant lot. For a trailer, storage also requires that it not be placed in use and that its doors remain securely locked. A garage does not turn vacant-lot storage or active trailer use into an approved activity.
Parking is not permission to occupy a trailer
Section 224-49 prohibits occupancy of a trailer by any person in every district enumerated in Articles IV through XI. A short visit is not an exception stated in that clause. This screen does not authorize hookups, sleeping, rental or dwelling use, and it does not apply a trailer rule to an unconfirmed motorhome classification.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask the Village of Irvington building/zoning office to confirm the exact municipal boundary, vehicle classification, applicable restrictions and any permit before relying on this limited screen.
Use the Irvington Village parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
