Posen RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Ordinary outdoor storage | Section 11-10-5(C)(1) allows one unoccupied vehicle on a parking-designed all-weather dustless hard surface, seal coat or better. It must remain outside the front yard and at least three feet from every lot line. RV gross weight, vehicle plus maximum load, cannot exceed 8,000 pounds. |
| Active trip loading | Subsection D allows temporary private-property parking for reasonably expeditious loading/unloading, pickups or deliveries, and vacation/trip preparation or return. The allowance lasts only as long as necessary; it is not a fixed-hour storage exception. |
| Visitor driveway permit | The Police Chief may issue a permit after written application for visitor parking on a private driveway for no more than 14 days. Traffic and adjoining residential enjoyment must not be interfered with. A denial may be appealed to the Village Board. Parking approval alone does not establish permission to live in the vehicle. Visitor RVs above 8,000 pounds need individual review of the interaction with subsection C. |
