Residential-street parking: 72 hours
Section 355.110 limits a vacation or recreational vehicle parking occurrence to 72 hours. The occurrence definition begins with the initial parking on a street in a residentially zoned district.
Moving away briefly does not stop the clock
The code says the occurrence runs continuously from its initial time even if parking is intermittent. Count elapsed time from the initial parking, not only the hours physically at the curb.
Traffic must remain clear
The same section prohibits parking in a manner that obstructs or impedes traffic. Meeting the time limit is insufficient if the RV blocks traffic; the checker can report that violation without asking for duration.
Do not confuse RVs with utility trailers
Section 355.120 separately regulates utility trailers and includes specific driveway and side-yard language. That provision is not automatically an RV private-storage permission. This checker uses the vacation/RV rule in Section 355.110.
Other street and sleeping restrictions remain
The 72-hour ceiling is not an entitlement to camp, connect utilities or ignore signs and ordinary parking restrictions. Section 355.100 accessible-parking rules were amended October 20, 2026; those rules also continue to apply where relevant.
Private storage needs its own review
This guide does not settle driveway or yard zoning, guest sleeping or ongoing residence. Unknown zoning, vehicle type or elapsed time does not establish compliance with the scoped street rule.
