Summary

Leander requires a Permits Division permit to store any self-propelled vehicle or towed trailer over 22 feet long, measured including hitches and overhangs, on residential property.

(a)A special vehicle is any trailer (including boats or any other item stored thereon) designed to be towed on public streets or any self-propelled vehicle which exceeds 22 feet in length.(b)Vehicle length shall be measured to include trailer connections and any overhang of the vehicle or trailer, including any items on the trailer....(12)The storage of a vehicle in excess of 22 feet in length requires a permit issued by the Permits Division certifying that the vehicle will be stored in compliance with this ordinance.

Full Breakdown

Article VI, Section 9 of Leander's Zoning Ordinance (Exhibit A to the Code of Ordinances) defines a 'special vehicle' as any towable trailer or self-propelled vehicle exceeding 22 feet in length, with length measured to include trailer connections and any overhang, in this Williamson County city. Storing a vehicle over that 22-foot threshold requires a permit from the Permits Division: the owner must submit a lot plan showing how the vehicle will be stored, and the permit names both the specific vehicle and the lot owner. The permit can be revoked if the vehicle isn't stored as approved, and this requirement applies on top of the front-yard and lot-count limits already governing special-vehicle storage.

Violations & Fines

Storing an oversized vehicle without the required Permits Division permit is a zoning violation subject to code enforcement citation and an order to obtain a permit or remove the vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit to keep my 24-foot camper at my Leander home?
Yes: any self-propelled vehicle or trailer over 22 feet, measured with hitches and overhang included, needs a Permits Division permit before it can be stored on the lot.
Can I transfer my special-vehicle storage permit to a new RV?
No: the permit is valid only for the specific vehicle and owner named on it; a different vehicle requires a new permit application.
