Use the residential route
Section 12.14.030(C) covers lots in R1, R2, RR and NMU zoning. Obtain the owner permission and confirm all applicable requirements. The chapter defines temporary occupancy as 180 days or less.
Do not use a city street as a campsite
Section 12.14.030(A) prohibits parking and occupying an RV on city streets. Posted restrictions also matter on city-controlled property.
Keep other routes separate
Commercial lots, private clubs and permitted campgrounds have different provisions. They are not evaluated here. Chapter 12.14 reflects Ordinance 25-08, adopted July 15, 2025. This screening grants no utility connections or land-use permit.
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 utility, campground, commercial-lot, club or special-permit approval. No reset period inferred.
Use the Valdez parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
