What makes a Lemoyne RV Class I or Class II?
The zoning definition includes self-propelled or towed mobile temporary residences and also towable utility and cargo trailers. Class I has no more than 200 square feet measured to the outermost edges and no more than 10 feet of main-body height. Class II exceeds either threshold. Height excludes listed accessories such as air conditioners and antennas, but includes a boat flybridge or console. Confirm the actual classification and measurement method.
How does the temporary 48-hour route work?
On a lot with a primary residential use, one Class I and one Class II unit may use the temporary unenclosed route for no more than 48 consecutive hours in a seven-day period. All must be at least one foot from any lot line and maintain current valid plates and inspection when applicable. The equipment must be registered to the owner or occupant of the lot. This is not a long-term front-yard storage exception.
How many units may be stored long term?
Section 550-70(C) states one vehicle per half acre of lot area, up to two Class I units, and separately the same area-based rule for Class II. Confirm the applicable lot area, classification and counts with the Borough. A small lot, a mix of classes or another unit already on the lot cannot be omitted from that assessment.
Where can long-term outdoor storage go?
It may not occupy the front yard between the principal building and a public street, excluding alleys, or any required front setback. It must meet the underlying district’s accessory-structure setbacks. Screening along abutting side and rear lot lines, excluding alleys, must provide at least 80% opacity under the buffer regulations. A fence does not establish the legal yard or setback by itself.
What must the storage surface and vehicle condition meet?
The long-term area must drain properly and use a durable, dustless surface, such as concrete or bituminous concrete, unless the Borough Codes Officer approves a qualifying stormwater alternative. Storage cannot displace required off-street spaces. Keep vegetation trimmed and debris removed; maintain valid registration/inspection when required, operability and no fuel or lubricant leaks.
Does this approve street parking, guest stays or every current parcel?
The examined route is private residential parking/storage. It does not establish a public-curb clock, sleeping or utility permission. Ordinance 790, enacted October 1, 2026, changes the zoning map near 1300 Market Street and says other provisions remain in force. Confirm current parcel zoning rather than treating a code-edition label or this general guide as a map determination.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask the governing municipality about the exact address, equipment, legal yard, proposed activity and current code. Bring measurements, prior-use dates and any issued approval; retain the written answer.
Use the Lemoyne parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
