Ottawa County does not regulate driveway parking. In Georgetown Township there is no ordinance against parking on your own lawn or yard, but vehicles at a residence must be operable and plated, and RVs generally belong behind the front face of the home.
Driveway and yard parking is set by each city or township, not by Ottawa County. Georgetown Charter Township states it has no ordinance regulating vehicles parked on the lawn or in the yard of a property, and does not regulate a vehicle's color or physical upkeep—only whether it is operable and plated. Dismantled or unplated vehicles must be stored in a garage or off-site, and recreational vehicles must generally be parked behind the front face of the home. Incorporated cities such as Holland may impose stricter surfacing and front-yard parking limits through their zoning codes, so verify your local ordinance.
Enforced as a municipal civil infraction only where a city or township ordinance applies (for example unplated or dismantled vehicles); many townships do not ticket ordinary yard parking.
