Initial temporary parking permit
In R-1 or R-2, one RV may temporarily park for up to 72 continuous hours within a single calendar month after issuance of the Zoning Enforcement Officer’s permit. The officer may grant one seven-day extension when the initial permit expires; no more than two extensions may be granted in a calendar year, each requiring a new application. This checker screens only the initial permit, not discretionary extensions or repeated short stays.

No habitation, business or fixed trailer
No human habitation or business may occur in the parked or stored unit. Trailer wheels or comparable transport devices must stay in place, and trailers cannot be affixed to the ground or attached to something located temporarily or permanently on the ground. Other access, surfacing and zoning requirements continue to apply; nonresidential RV parking must be integral to an allowed or conditionally allowed use.

No street-parking approval, nonresidential-use approval or discretionary extension decision. Adopted Ordinance 2025-10 is reproduced in the current code; the official legislation index through 2026 was reviewed, rather than relying on the old proposed-code PDF.
