Public occupancy requires a permit
Chapter 10.26 requires a city permit to reside or live in a recreational vehicle on public property. The permit route allows up to 15 days. A motor home, travel trailer, camper or other vehicle equipped for sleeping or living is covered; ordinary unoccupied parking is a separate question.
Private occupancy and permit limits
Residing or living in an RV on private property for more than 15 days in any 30-day period requires a permit for an additional 15 days. The city must be satisfied that water supply, garbage disposal and sanitation are self-contained. Permits may not be issued for the same vehicle more than twice in any six-month period. The first 15 days are not a blanket zoning or camping entitlement.
Construction occupancy is a separate route
A current permit for construction of a new dwelling on the same premises can support an RV occupancy permit for up to 90 days, renewable by the city manager. The RV must be self-contained and create no health hazard. The checker does not issue or validate this discretionary construction permit.
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 campground, land-use, utility, street-parking or permit-validity approval.
Use the Silverton parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
