Jurisdiction and research scope

Perry RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Stored camping trailers | One per family in a private garage or side/rear yard; no residential use. |
| Campgrounds | Separate zoning-conforming campground route, not a private-lot exemption. |
| Other RV classes | Do not infer motorhome or mobile-home permissions from the camping-trailer clause. |
| Utilities | No water, electrical or sewer approval is established by these selected clauses. |
First establish the vehicle class
Perry defines a camping trailer as a towable trailer equipped with an enclosure for sleeping on vacations or other short trips. It may have cooking, bath and sanitary equipment. The definition is not a blanket classification of every motorhome, mobile home or hauling trailer. Confirm the actual unit before applying §16-603(a).
Storage is one camping trailer per family
Section 16-603(a) provides for camping-trailer storage on the basis of one per family in private garages or side or rear yards of private homes, business or industrial areas. Exactly one meets that count condition; two does not. The checker asks about the count rather than assuming that a single vehicle selected on screen is the only one stored.
Check the actual yard or garage location
The storage language identifies garages and side or rear yards. A driveway can extend into different parts of a lot; calling it a driveway does not settle whether it is a listed storage location. Front-yard, street and other placements need separate confirmation rather than being treated as automatically allowed.
Stored trailers cannot become residences
The storage clause requires that the trailer not be used for residential purposes. Separately, the campground paragraph prohibits permanent or semi-permanent residential use of camping trailers. A bed or a sleeping option alone does not establish the actual use, so the checker asks for that fact explicitly. It does not invent a number of nights that makes occupancy permissible.
Campgrounds are a different route
Camping trailers may be parked in campgrounds or trailer parks when the camper area conforms to zoning and other city ordinances. That is not permission to create a campsite on an ordinary residential lot. The checker’s storage branch does not approve a campground, a park expansion, a mobile home or temporary construction accommodation.
Before storing or staying
Confirm city limits, classification, the actual storage position, the number of camping trailers per family and the intended use. Ask the city about zoning, any later amendments and utility requirements. The reviewed code was adopted July8,2026 and published August20,2026. Meeting this selected storage clause is not a complete site approval.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask the city to confirm the parcel or street jurisdiction, exact vehicle classification and any later amendments before relying on an exception. Use the official source links above; this checker does not issue a permit.
