Unattached equipment on public property
Section 450-41B prohibits the listed RVs, trailers and truck-camper bodies from being parked on a street, alley or borough parking lot when not attached to or mounted on a motor vehicle. The definition includes vacation and recreational vehicles such as travel trailers, motorhomes and truck campers. The checker does not interpret the attachment language as automatic permission for a self-propelled motorhome or a coupled trailer.
Chestnut Street and marked spaces
Section 450-37 restricts Chestnut Street between Lewis Road and North Seventh Avenue to passenger cars. Motorhomes, buses, tractor-trailers and passenger cars pulling any trailer are expressly outside that class. Section 450-33 also requires every vehicle using a marked street space to fit wholly inside its boundary lines. Other street-specific prohibitions and time limits remain applicable.
No RV living use
Section 450-41C prohibits occupying an RV for living purposes anywhere in the borough, whether on a street, public property or private property. The 2024 amendment does not provide a visiting-family exception. This guide does not equate the absence of a private storage rule in that section with permission to create a campsite or dwelling.
Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the exact address and proposal with the local planning or police office. This limited administrative screening is not a permit or complete legal approval. Self-propelled or attached configurations need individual traffic review. No camping or private-lot storage approval is provided. Current code includes Ordinance 929 of June 11, 2024 and has no new-law register entries.
Use the Royersford parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
