RE: where does your town make you park your pop up??

[SherryandFamily]

Our city ordinance says you can not have an RV or boat parked past the front corner of your house.  Fortunately we have a concrete patio that doubles as our popup parking stop.  Actually doubles is incorrect, it is not longer a patio.

The cool thing about that is we open the back door and step into the popup to loan/unload.

The town  code still allows RVs,trailers,boats  to be stored on your own property. Has to be behind the front of the house. We are still 50% rural. City types haven't taken over yet.  I do have 200 acres of orchard across the road that now has a development rights easement which means no development for a while.

CC&Rs say we can only have the RV's parked for 24 hours in the driveway.  The law is 72 hours on the street.  And, believe me...the cops are called all the time on those of us with RVs!  I think the people who call are just spoil-sports!  So, in my community, we all pay for storage.

Feel for all of you. I live in a small town in Maine. I park my Viking anywhere I please on my own land. Even in the front yard on occasion when the need arises.

Here in Omaha the City Code says you can park a Rv or boat on a hard surface if the Rv or boat is less than 25 Feet. Can be a driveway or patio just as long as it is hard surfaced and well taken care of as not to become an eyesore.

Wow, you guys have it hard.  We live in Upstate NY (80 miles from Canada border) and we can park anywhere we want.  No rules telling us where to park, or no one telling us how to park, etc.  

I do feel for the people who live in townhouses and cities that have to store your pop-ups.  What it must be like to not just be able to walk out the back door in your bare feet and jump in your pop up is gotta suck.  

Only draw back living where we do, the farmer likes to spread liquid manuer in the lot next door and the inside of our pop-up get's smelly for a bit too - UGGGHHHHH!!

Legally and what you do are sometimes 2 different things.  So I d rather not say.  We have had too many people called for other things.

 

 Our neighbor behind us has called the Board of Health (4-5 times a year) because we have 5 dogs, and recently the police because our small car hangs over the sidewalk because we keep the camper in the driveway and put the small car in the driveway as we cannot leave a car parked on the street for more than 48hrs or it will be ticketed and towed.  I m sure the camper will be next on her hit list.

Since I don't live in city limits I can park it anywhere I want.
I HATE HOA's. I don't want anybody to tell me where I have to put my trash can or what I can and cannot do to my yard.
I am very picky about my yard to the point my neighbors think I have OCD. But if I want to do something I don't want to have to ask permission from anyone. I own my house outright and I want to do whatever I want, when I want.
