Choose the permitted yard

Sections 196-35 and 196-36 prioritize rear access, then side/rear access. Front driveway storage is a fallback only without side/rear access, entirely outside the right-of-way. Corner lots require rear placement.

Surface changed in 2026

Ordinance 671-2026 replaces subsection D: concrete/asphalt is standard. Zoning Officer approval can allow side/rear placement on concrete blocks beneath every ground-contact point. Blocks must be at least 12 inches square and four inches thick, with maintained landscaping.

Use and street loading

Keep required registration, inspection and insurance current, and equipment operational and clean. Street loading/unloading is limited to 48 hours with trailers attached. More than six months without use creates a rebuttable long-term-storage presumption; equipment unused at least annually belongs off-site.

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. Officer-approved blocks are not automatic permission. Existing district and private restrictions still apply.

Use the Sinking Spring parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
