Lakemore RV parking at a glance

|---|---|
| Storage | Up to two RVs/campers per residence; working, repaired and currently plated; available driveway as far from street right-of-way as possible. |

| Occupancy | No dwelling approval from the storage rule; sleeping/living is not screened. |
Residential storage has four express conditions
Section 603.10 permits parking or storage of RVs and campers on a residential-district lot, with no more than two such vehicles per residence. Outside a fully enclosed building, the vehicle must be in good repair, working and currently plated. When driveway space is available, use it and place the vehicle as far from the street right-of-way as possible. Storage on public rights-of-way, private streets and other public property is prohibited. This screen covers the available-driveway route; it does not resolve a yard-storage proposal where no driveway space exists.

Village-owned property needs a separate authorization
Ordinance 1439-2010, adopted July 6, 2010, prohibits camper/RV parking on village-owned property except where the owner obtains a village permit for a specified period or a council-approved special event requires such parking for a specified period. A residential storage allowance is not a public-lot permit. This checker does not issue or evaluate those discretionary permissions.

Parking is not permission to live in the vehicle
The residential provision concerns parking and storage, not a dwelling approval. Section 603.4 separately restricts house trailers used as dwellings to designated parks established before the ordinance. The narrow checker leaves sleeping, living, hookups, commercial uses and nonresidential parcels unresolved rather than treating a stored RV as an authorized home.

Confirm the parcel before placing the RV
Confirm the village boundary, residential zoning, lawful driveway and property boundaries. Keep required access and all other applicable parcel restrictions satisfied. The village zoning page currently supplies these source documents and directs zoning applications through the Planning Commission. This is a review of those published provisions, not a claim that every later council action has been exhaustively consolidated.

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. The guide uses the currently supplied village zoning documents. No claim of an exhaustive later-legislation audit; confirm parcel requirements and any intervening changes with the village.
Use the Lakemore parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
