Ware RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| Storage | Homeowner’s own unoccupied RV storage is preserved, with site/use rules still applicable. |
| Public parking | Not determined. |
| Occupancy | More than 30 cumulative days/year prohibited; shorter stays require separate review. |
Cumulative occupancy limit
Section 260-4.7.1D prohibits RV occupancy exceeding thirty days in a calendar year, continuous or otherwise. Separate visits count toward the same annual total. The subsection does not, by itself, establish permission for every shorter stay.
Homeowner storage distinction
The same subsection expressly says it does not prevent a homeowner from parking their own RV on their lot for storage. This is limited to that ownership and unoccupied-storage situation. It does not resolve placement, setbacks, utility connections, accessory-use classification, or private restrictions.
Other uses and temporary approvals
Section 260-4.7.1 treats uses not specifically or generically listed or otherwise permitted in a district as prohibited. Mobile homes are generally barred outside a mobile home park. Duly permitted temporary-event uses and special temporary housing have separate provisions. This checker sends those cases for individual review and makes no public-parking determination.
Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the exact proposal with the municipality. This is limited administrative screening, not a permit or complete legal approval. No affirmative sleeping, hookup, emergency housing, temporary-event or public-parking approval.
Use the Ware parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
