Newcastle RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Driveway / yard | Private-lot rules require a separate zoning answer. Confirm parcel setbacks, surfaces and other zoning conditions before outdoor storage. |
| Street / loading | September 15–May 15: temporary parking no more than two hours. Loading does not establish an exemption from the cited parking restrictions. |
| Sleeping / utilities | Parking rules do not establish a sleeping allowance. Street water: 2 hours/24 hours; power: 7 days/30 days; lines must lie flat without hazards. Other approvals remain separate. |
Winter and spring parking
From September 15 through May 15, an RV or trailer may use a public street or municipal parking area only for temporary parking of no more than two hours. Outside that season, the other parking conditions remain in effect.
Permission and roadworthiness
Street parking beside a one- or two-unit residential dwelling, including a mobile home, requires an owner’s or renter’s permission. Vehicles must be licensed, operable and safe to drive or tow. No part may extend over the sidewalk or travel lane.
Connections are limited
Street water connections are capped at two hours per 24 hours; electric connections at seven days per 30 days. Both must lie flat without a tripping hazard. These limits do not themselves authorize sleeping, sewer connections or private-lot storage.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Newcastle Planning or Code Enforcement to confirm jurisdiction, the actual parcel or road, vehicle classification, position, duration and intended use. Obtain the required road, building, electrical, plumbing or wastewater approvals before relying on a parking exception. Easements, HOA rules and leases remain separate. Start with the official rule or permit guidance.
Use the Newcastle parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
