| Occupancy | House-trailer living/sleeping prohibited except separately reviewed emergency permit. |
Outdoor storage and ownership
Chapter 172 permits one covered camper, camper trailer, mobile home, house trailer, boat or boat trailer per family on the lot containing that family’s dwelling. The vehicle must belong to an owner or occupant. Driveway and rear-yard storage are limited to 25 feet. A rear yard must be enclosed. Garage storage is a separate route not evaluated here.
Required parking and public storage
Storage cannot take the spaces needed for the property’s other required off-street parking. Chapter 172 does not govern vacant lots, which are subject to separate maintenance rules. Section 172-1, amended March 19, 2026, prohibits outside storage of the listed equipment on highways, streets and public property. This is not the same as permission for temporary street parking.
Sleeping and temporary street limits
Section 172-2 prohibits locating a house trailer for living or sleeping on premises or streets, with an emergency permit route through the Building Department. Highway parking of covered vehicles is barred from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m.; specified trailers otherwise have a three-hour street cap, except bona fide commercial service, sales or delivery. This checker leaves temporary street parking and non-house-trailer occupancy unresolved rather than extending those categories.
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. No general street, vacant-lot, garage, emergency or hookup approval. Other Chapter 168 restrictions remain applicable.
Use the Lake Grove parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
