Residential RV placement
Section 390-22(J)(2)(a) allows an RV on a parcel only when it is not in the front yard and is unoccupied. Its total length including hitch must not exceed 24 feet. Residential lots may have no more than one per dwelling unit. Screening is referred to §390-24; that section specifies buffers for nonresidential, recreational and multifamily uses abutting residential land and screening for nonresidential uses. Confirm which requirements apply to the actual parcel instead of assuming every single-family RV needs the same fifty-foot buffer.

Trailers, street storage and repairs
Section 390-22(J)(1) keeps trailers for boats, jet skis and other recreational equipment at least 25 feet from the curb or right-of-way edge. Section J(2) prohibits using any street to repair or store a trailer or RV. Major repairs must be inside a building, and the vehicle cannot serve as a sleeping place or dwelling during those repairs. These rules do not establish a daytime street-parking allowance or permission to camp.

Driveways and current local changes
Section 390-26 controls driveway siting, width, aprons and access. Newly or substantially reconstructed dwellings require driveways at least five feet from side and fifteen feet from rear property lines. Other lot and engineering conditions still apply. Adopted 2026 Ordinance 1120 creates a special affordable-housing overlay for Block 110 Lot 17, excluded here. Ordinance 1127 changes impervious-coverage and pool-fence provisions. Ordinances 1124 and 1128 add or revise street prohibitions, including Nicodemus Avenue and Main Street. This checker never treats compliance with the RV provision as approval of a driveway, overlay project or unrestricted street parking.

Who to contact for your setup

Administrative screening of §390-22(J), not an overlay, driveway, building, camping or traffic permit. The code landing page returned 403 on November 7 and was not retried; operative chapter and current adopted-law list and relevant amendments were retrieved separately before that failed landing-page action.
