Apopka permits RV and boat storage on residential lots when parked on an improved surface behind the front building line. RVs cannot be used as permanent dwellings. HOAs often impose stricter limits in Apopka subdivisions.
Apopka zoning code allows recreational vehicles, boats, and trailers in residential zones provided they are owned by the resident, stored on a paved or improved surface, and set back behind the front facade of the home. Units over 30 feet may require side-yard placement. Living in an RV is prohibited except during active construction with a temporary permit (90 days maximum). Many Apopka neighborhoods (Rock Springs Ridge, Errol Estates, Wekiva Run) have HOA covenants banning visible RV/boat storage entirely.
RV in front yard: 100 dollar code enforcement fine. Living in RV without permit: 250 dollars plus removal order. HOA violations: private enforcement plus fines.
