Pevely RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| driveway | The RV exception permits parking in front of a house on a concrete or asphalt driveway. |
| yard | Side/rear RV parking may use any surface when the vehicle remains on attached inflated tires and avoids health/fire hazards and nuisances. |
| guest | The parking exception does not establish guest sleeping or continuing residential use. |
| street | The private-lot exception is not public-street parking permission. |
| loading | No distinct RV loading duration is established by the cited private parking exception. |
| hookups | Parking permission does not establish permission to connect utilities or occupy the RV. |
| uncertainty | Subdivision restrictions and lot conditions remain applicable. Manufactured Housing Park Districts prohibit trucks or RVs weighing over 12,000 pounds; the home checker excludes that district and flood-hazard sites. |
Use concrete or asphalt in front
Section 405.350(E) expressly permits recreational vehicles in front of a house on a concrete or asphalt driveway. A front lawn or gravel front drive does not meet that exception.
The side and rear have a surface exception
The RV clause allows side/rear placement on any type of surface, provided the unit remains on attached inflated tires and creates no health or fire hazard or nuisance. Do not interpret the general sealed-surface rule without reading this specific exception.
Keep the rest of the parking layout lawful
The exception does not waive access, parking-space geometry, property lines, corner visibility or drainage. Section 405.350 refers back to 405.340’s space and access standards. Street-side corner yards should be checked with the City rather than treated as interior side yards.
Private restrictions still apply
The code explicitly preserves subdivision restrictions and conditions imposed on a lot. A municipal parking result does not override a restrictive covenant or homeowners-association rule.
Manufactured Housing Park Districts are different
Section 405.370(B) prohibits trucks or recreational vehicles weighing more than 12,000 pounds in a Manufactured Housing Park District. This checker excludes that district, as well as commercial sites, rather than extending the ordinary home exception.
Flood hazards and occupied use need their own review
The home-parking exception does not authorize sleeping, ongoing residence, hookups or public-street stays. Floodplain Chapter 415 imposes separate RV conditions in designated hazard areas; the checker requires a confirmed site outside those areas and does not approve floodplain placement.
Who to contact for your setup
