What is Montgomery Township’s overnight RV rule?
Ordinance 25-351 added §222-26, prohibiting RVs/trailers, trailers and semitrailers, mobile homes, boats and boat trailers, buses and other listed vehicles on Township roadways or trafficways from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. The separate 14,000-pound/Class 6 vehicle category does not make small RVs exempt.
What exceptions are listed?
The section excludes vehicles actively being loaded or unloaded; Township-owned or controlled vehicles; ambulance, fire and rescue vehicles; USPS vehicles; street, curb, sidewalk or utility construction/repair vehicles; and routine household delivery/service vehicles serving a property on that block or street. It also excludes vehicles kept in an enclosed building or garage on a residential lot. The Township may grant exceptions for just cause. These are specific exclusions, not a general overnight guest allowance.
What about parks, private storage and enforcement?
The ordinance also prohibits parking any vehicle after hours in Township parks and replaces the old off-street unmetered-parking sections. Vehicles may be removed immediately without notice when they overstay lawful time or at Township direction, with costs assessed to the owner or person parking. The enclosed-building exclusion does not itself authorize outdoor home storage, sleeping or hookups.
What should I confirm before parking?
Confirm the actual jurisdiction and road status, posted restrictions, current ordinance and any claimed exception. If planning an occupied RV stay or outdoor storage, obtain separate zoning guidance for the property.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Montgomery Township Police about the exact roadway, signs and exceptions. Ask municipal zoning staff about the parcel, vehicle classification, outdoor storage, occupancy and utility work. Confirm later ordinances, easements, leases and private covenants separately.
Use the Montgomery Township parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
