Use the specific temporary exception
Section 7-3C-11(D) allows major RVs as temporary accessory living quarters in rear yards, side yards or driveways for no more than two weeks. Self-contained sanitary facilities are required.
Do not extend the exception to other locations
The general rule prohibits residential-lot living, sleeping or housekeeping except for this temporary route. Required front/side-yard storage and loading have separate provisions; a front-yard campsite is not included.
Confirm the complete arrangement
The code does not state an automatic reset period for repeated two-week visits. Confirm repeat stays with the city. Hookups, special approvals and streets are outside this checker. The publisher shows 2025 S-13 and its pending-ordinance page had no listed measures.
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. No reset, utility or street permission; special circumstances need city review.
Use the Shelby parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
