Locate the camper before counting hours
Section 10.06(6) restricts recreational equipment stored in a street right-of-way or front setback, excluding the driveway, for more than 48 hours. Campers are expressly included in recreational equipment. This guide evaluates the non-driveway front-setback case only.
Do not treat 48 hours as blanket permission
Separate provisions address junk, inoperable and unlicensed equipment, and other traffic and zoning controls still apply. The code also has a variance application for practical difficulties caused by lot size, buildings or topography. Its driveway-related language needs address-specific interpretation, so no driveway allowance is calculated here.
Resolve a longer storage plan
Ask the Building Inspector to identify the setback and whether a variance is available before leaving a camper there longer. Any issued variance has its own limits. Neither moving within the lot nor a short departure is treated here as resetting the storage period, and sleeping or utility hookups require separate review.
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. All three listed August 2026 laws read: liquor licensing, bicycles/e-scooters and speed limits. No driveway variance, business exception or other relief is automated.
Use the Nekoosa parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
