Longer Class II storage
One Class II vehicle may be stored only if it does not exceed 320 square feet or 13 feet main-body height, meets principal-use setbacks and stays behind the building setback line, or the required front yard line on a vacant lot. Side/rear screening under 313 is required except the specified common line between an owner’s residence and adjacent owned vacant storage lot. One ten-foot access break to an alley is allowed. Screens must block ground-level views through six feet and landscape screens achieve this within two years; maintenance and licensure apply. The checker leaves Class II site-specific setbacks and screening to Township review rather than issuing parcel approval.

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 Class II parcel approval, public-street, commercial-truck, floodplain or occupancy determination.
Use the Strasburg Township parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
