Where does Towamencin allow home RV storage?
Use A-7, §153-502H(7), addresses campers, RVs and boats stored on premises by the occupants of those premises. Storage must be in side or rear yards and within the property’s building setback line. A paved front driveway is not an exception in this provision. Ask zoning staff to identify the legal yards and applicable building setbacks.
Is owner permission enough for a visiting RV?
No. This provision refers to storage by the occupants of the premises, and §§153-500–501 retain district permission, dimensional standards, impervious-surface, easement, parking and other regulations. A visitor’s storage arrangement or special approval needs its own determination. This guide does not establish blanket storage permission on every lot.
Can friends sleep in an RV in the side yard?
No under the residential-lot rule. Use A-7 expressly excludes living, sleeping or housekeeping when these vehicles/equipment are parked or stored on a residential lot. Side-yard placement, screening or a hookup does not overcome that prohibition.
What about street loading, repairs and current zoning?
Use A-7 does not supply a street-loading grace period, road-parking permission or repair allowance. Confirm those separately. The code lists a November 2025 zoning and map amendment; ask whether the parcel is in an affected overlay and obtain the current applicable requirements. Utility work and sewage approvals also remain separate.
Who to contact for your setup
Ask Towamencin Township Police about the exact roadway, signs and exceptions. Ask municipal zoning staff about the parcel, vehicle classification, outdoor storage, occupancy and utility work. Confirm later ordinances, easements, leases and private covenants separately.
Use the Towamencin Township parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
