WHEEL STOPS

B.

Storage and Loading—Location. Permitted recreational vehicles may be parked, stored or loaded in any location in which passenger vehicles may be parked, stored or loaded, unless otherwise restricted. Further, recreational vehicles may be parked, stored or loaded in locations where passenger vehicles may not be parked, stored or loaded, provided that no other location on the site ordinarily available for vehicle parking can accommodate the recreational vehicle because access to those locations is blocked by a permanent building element such as a structural wall, an eave or a roof. These locations are:

1.

In areas blocking access to required parking spaces, provided that the spaces being blocked are for a single-family dwelling only and the owner of the recreational vehicle resides in that dwelling; and

2.

In the side yard setback area, provided that:

a.

The recreational vehicle is located as far as physically feasible from the side lot line, consistent with requirements for light and ventilation into adjoining rooms.

b.

The recreational vehicle is located as far to the rear of the lot as is physically consistent with maintaining access to the garage.

C.

Boats and Camper Shells. Boats and camper shells, if parked in areas visible from public rights-of-way, shall be mounted on licensed, operative vehicles.
