Use the RV-specific limit

Section 10.08.100 limits RVs and trailers to 12 continuous hours in any city right-of-way, including unimproved portions. Moving and reparking to evade a time limit is prohibited. The 24-hour disabled-vehicle rule is not a longer allowance for RVs. Section 10.08.170 separately imposes a cumulative 24-hour ceiling in any consecutive seven-day period on covered city property; the count includes all properties owned or leased by the city.

Street parking is not camping

Section 10.08.100 bars overnight accommodation on public right-of-way. Chapter 10.14 independently prohibits RV parking on streets or dedicated right-of-way for occupancy, camping or sleeping. This screen is only for an empty, operable RV parked for ordinary transportation, with no sleeping or hookups.

Time, place and payment still matter

Commercial-district street parking spaces are closed from 3 a.m. to 7 a.m. Residential streets and areas within three feet of paved residential surfaces have a midnight–7 a.m. restriction from November 15 through March 15. The checker avoids both overnight windows by evaluating stays entirely between 7 a.m. and midnight. Signs, shorter limits, paid-parking requirements and temporary closures still control. Do not block traffic, snow removal, sidewalks, ramps, hydrants or crosswalks.

Separate permit routes

Lot permits, private residential storage and temporary event RV areas have separate rules. No overnight or camping permit is granted by meeting the street time limit. The reviewed code showed no pending laws; local signs and temporary restrictions must still be checked.

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 overnight, private lot, parking-lot, camping, animal-confinement, emergency or permit decision.

Use the Leavenworth parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
