Littlefield RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Approved parking surface | Ordinary front-yard RV parking requires a building-official-approved improved surface, drainage and maintenance. Every wheel must remain on the driveway or improved surface. Sidewalks and easements are not authorized parking areas. |
| Front yards and coverage | The code treats corner lots as having two front yards. Existing improved driveways are excluded from the front-yard definition. Combined improved surfaces cannot cover more than 50% of the applicable front yard. |
| Temporary project exception | Construction, building improvements or landscaping must actually require off-surface parking. Remove the vehicles within 72 hours after the portion requiring that parking is complete. The exception does not authorize camping or eliminate unrelated access rules. |
