A Recreational Vehicle must maintain a minimum three (3) foot clearance from any Garage or Building while parked or stored outside of an enclosed Garage or Building.

Pinal County's code addresses oversized vehicles by type. Heavy commercial trucks rated 19,500 lbs GVWR or more (2.185.055) are prohibited in residential zoning districts and capped in rural districts at one per licensed driver, two per parcel. Large recreational vehicles and utility trailers (2.185.060, 2.185.061) may be stored outside only on a dustproof surface in a screened side or rear yard, behind a solid wall, fence or gate at least seven feet tall, and must keep a 3-foot clearance from buildings and leave a 4-foot clear path front-to-rear.
