Summary
Cheyenne only allows an RV or trailer to be parked on the street directly adjacent to the owner's own property, and bans oversized vehicles over 25 feet long from any public roadway between Labor Day and Memorial Day.
In addition to the limitations specified in this chapter, recreational vehicles and trailers may be parked in the street only if the area in which any such vehicle is parked is immediately and entirely adjacent to real property which is owned by or occupied by the owner of the recreational vehicle or trailer. The authority to park a recreational vehicle or trailer provided under this subsection shall not apply to any recreational vehicle or trailer that constitutes an oversized vehicle as regulated by Section 10.52.020(D) of this chapter and Section 8.60.080(B) of the city code. (Ord. No. 4601, § 1, 12-9-24; Ord. No. 3957, § 4, 9-24-12)
Editor's note— Ord. No. 4601, § 1, adopted Dec. 9, 2024, amended § 10.52.200 and in doing so changed the title of said section from "Recreational vehicle, trailer-defined—Parking permitted in certain places" to "Recreational vehicles and trailers; parking permitted in certain places," as set out herein.

Full Breakdown
City Code 10.52.200(C) permits a recreational vehicle or trailer to be parked in the street only in the block immediately and entirely adjacent to real property owned or occupied by the vehicle's owner -- you can't park it in front of a neighbor's lot. That permission doesn't cover "oversized vehicles": under 8.60.080(B) and 10.52.020(D), anything over 25 feet long, 9 feet tall, or 8'6" wide is barred from public roadways citywide between Labor Day and Memorial Day, with a five-day grace window around each holiday for loading or winterizing.
Violations & Fines
Illegally parked oversized vehicles are a nuisance under 8.60.080 subject to abatement, and general parking violations are cited under Chapter 10.16; a temporary oversized-vehicle permit costs $15 through the city clerk with police chief approval.
