Outside private parking
For a vehicle at most 20 feet overall, §128-2 permits only one listed vehicle per family outside on the lot containing that family dwelling. It must belong to an owner or occupant and be in the driveway or garage without displacing required off-street parking. An enclosed garage is exempt from the count. Vehicles over 20 feet need a separate Board of Trustees permit for outside private parking or storage.
Public parking and storage
Public-property outside storage is prohibited. Storage is parking exceeding 24 hours under the chapter definition. A listed vehicle over 20 feet cannot be parked on public property at all; shorter parking is still subject to all village vehicle and traffic restrictions. Temporary habitation in the listed vehicles is prohibited on public property.
Private temporary habitation
Temporary habitation needs the property owner’s permission, otherwise lawful parking, and a license issued by the Mayor before use. The initial license lasts no more than 14 days. Peace, good order and neighboring property protections remain mandatory. Renewals and extensions require satisfactory proof of temporary use; they are not automatic. Permanent habitation is prohibited.
