Camping RVs on front driveways
Unified Development Code §5.003(B)(1)(g) permits year-round front-setback storage of habitable camping RVs on an established paved driveway. The unit must remain wholly on its owner’s property without blocking sidewalk or right-of-way. It must be operable, currently licensed and registered to the premises’ owner or occupant; a principal structure is required.
Length and access conditions
Outdoor residential units longer than 40 feet are limited to eight hours unless separately authorized by a conditional-use permit. Items in utility easements must be movable whenever access is needed. The lawn exception is written for recreational equipment, not recreational vehicles; this checker only considers paved camping-RV storage.
No permanent dwelling conversion
Section 5.003(D) prohibits using an RV as a permanent dwelling. The storage rule does not establish permission for temporary sleeping, utility connections or street parking.
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. The official UDC amended October 15, 2026 controls this private-property packet. The October 13 parking handout describes the lawn exception more broadly than adopted text; this packet uses the narrower code and excludes lawn storage. Older traffic-code captures are retained only as unresolved research, not current-law authority. The ordinances/policies page was inaccessible; no retry was made.
Use the New Prague parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
