Off-street residential storage
Section 70.16A allows enclosed storage or an outdoor route outside the front yard, with a five-foot perimeter on all sides and the entire unit on one parcel owned by the vehicle owner. Commercial and industrial districts and B1 uses require separate analysis, not the residential checker.

Seasonal residential dwelling
Section 70.16B allows temporary dwelling use between Memorial Day and Labor Day. In R1, R2 and RR it is only for the RV owner or immediate family. Keep at least five feet from every other structure and lot line, and no more than one unit used as a temporary dwelling per lot. A fully charged operational fire extinguisher, working smoke alarm and compliance with requested inspection are required. City Manager, special-use and temporary-campground exceptions are reviewed separately.

Street prohibition and temporary exception
Section 70.15 generally prohibits campers, trailers and motor homes on City streets. Emergency or temporary parking may last no longer than seven days, subject to other traffic restrictions, and requires immediate notice to City Police. Small-boat exceptions are not applied to an RV. This checker sends emergency, notice timing and other exceptional cases for direct review; ordinary street storage does not qualify. The current ordinance table identifies the August 2026 zoning amendment as data-center provisions, not these RV traffic sections.

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 manager exception, commercial/industrial, small-boat, utilities or special campground approval.
Use the Negaunee parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
