Slinger RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| One combined outdoor allowance per dwelling | The selected properties may have up to one RV unit or one utility trailer per dwelling unit outdoors. This is not an allowance for one RV plus one trailer. All RVs and utility trailers must be on an approved/permitted paved surface such as asphalt or cement. |
| Front placement has two independent tests | In a front yard, including either front yard of a corner lot, the RV must be closer to the dwelling and/or garage than the front lot line. It must also stay at least five feet from the front line/public right-of-way unless the total driveway length outside the right-of-way is twenty feet or less. That exception affects the stated distance, not the other placement conditions. |
| Side and rear placement has both proximity and setbacks | In side and rear yards the RV must be closer to the dwelling or permitted garage than to the lot line. It may not be closer than ten feet to a rear lot line or five feet to a side lot line. Confirm all applicable boundaries rather than treating the selected yard name as the only line that matters. |
| Keep sidewalks, rights-of-way and sight lines clear | No RV may extend beyond the lot line into public right-of-way or block a public sidewalk. Placement must not obstruct vision for vehicles entering or leaving the property. These requirements remain even where the short-driveway distance exception applies. |
Confirm residential scope and vehicle category
Section 550-51 covers outdoor parking on specified residentially zoned or used property. This checker deliberately selects existing one- and two-family property in R-1 through R-6 or Rd-1. Multifamily sites need prior written site/screening approval, while commercial-district residential uses and new development require separate review. The RV definition includes motorhomes, camper trailers and other listed recreational units; the separate personal-use-vehicle weight and dimension limits are not silently imposed on RVs.
One combined outdoor allowance per dwelling
The selected properties may have up to one RV unit or one utility trailer per dwelling unit outdoors. This is not an allowance for one RV plus one trailer. All RVs and utility trailers must be on an approved/permitted paved surface such as asphalt or cement.
Front placement has two independent tests
In a front yard, including either front yard of a corner lot, the RV must be closer to the dwelling and/or garage than the front lot line. It must also stay at least five feet from the front line/public right-of-way unless the total driveway length outside the right-of-way is twenty feet or less. That exception affects the stated distance, not the other placement conditions.
Side and rear placement has both proximity and setbacks
In side and rear yards the RV must be closer to the dwelling or permitted garage than to the lot line. It may not be closer than ten feet to a rear lot line or five feet to a side lot line. Confirm all applicable boundaries rather than treating the selected yard name as the only line that matters.
Keep sidewalks, rights-of-way and sight lines clear
No RV may extend beyond the lot line into public right-of-way or block a public sidewalk. Placement must not obstruct vision for vehicles entering or leaving the property. These requirements remain even where the short-driveway distance exception applies.
Operable, road-legal and unoccupied
Outdoor units must be operable and properly licensed and registered if those are required for road use. Section 550-51F(2) prohibits temporary as well as permanent occupancy. A guest visit or a short stay is not an express exception in this section.
Later laws and other routes
The code includes legislation through June 19, 2026. Nine later originals address accessory-building design, development review, snow storage, fences, signs, commercial definitions/districts, dumpsters and pool barriers. None directly rewrites § 550-51. This checker excludes commercial-district and new-development routes rather than implying that those amendments are irrelevant to every parcel. Public streets are expressly governed by separate on-street rules. Special approvals and more restrictive provisions require independent review.
