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.

Ware §260-4.7

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.

Ware §260-4.7

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.
