Residential streets and vehicle scope
Chapter 405 covers boats, trailers, campers, camper-trailers, motorhomes and recreational vehicles. Parking or storage on any roadway, street or highway in a residential area is prohibited. This does not determine parking permission on nonresidential streets or public lots.
Rear-yard storage and board permission
Section 405-5 restricts front-yard storage and side-yard storage extending beyond the front building line. Its rear-yard provision describes the area between extensions of the building side lines to the rear lot line, without intrusion into legally required side yards. Someone unable to comply may apply to the Zoning Board of Appeals for side-yard permission; inability alone is not approval.
Sleeping and connections
Living or sleeping in the covered vehicles, or connecting any such vehicle to electricity, water, gas or sanitary sewer facilities, is prohibited throughout the Village except in a duly established trailer park maintained under Village law. This checker excludes trailer parks and does not infer permission from registration or property ownership.
Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the address and proposal with the local planning or police office before relying on this limited rule check. Other laws and private restrictions remain applicable.
