Campbell County, KY Parking Rules: Abandoned Vehicles (2026)

057(A) of the zoning code, adopted by Ordinance O-11-82 on November 3, 1982, applies to every lot in every zone countywide: an inoperable motor vehicle may not be stored outside unless it is fully enclosed in a building, and outdoor parking is limited to the operable vehicles a resident family and its guests regularly use. The same section separately restricts outdoor storage of trailers, mobile homes, campers, boats and similar equipment to a lot's rear yard, unless the Planning and Zoning Commission allows another location because of unique topography.

03 makes it unlawful for a property owner, title holder or tenant to keep such an item on private property unless it is enclosed, hidden from view, or lawfully stored by a licensed dismantler, dealer or salvage yard. Enforcement runs two tracks. 999, any violation of the zoning chapter, including the inoperable-vehicle rule, is a Class B misdemeanor, with each day of continued violation charged as a separate offense. 06, once a District Court finds a property owner guilty of keeping a dilapidated vehicle, the owner has ten days from the order to remove it at personal expense; if it is not removed, the county may enter the property, remove the vehicle, and bill the owner, who then has ten more days to pay before the county can place a lien bearing 10% annual interest against the real estate.
