Hillsborough County LDC §6.11.04 allows RV and boat storage on residential property in side or rear yards, screened from street view. Front yard RV/boat parking prohibited except on approved driveways for up to 72 hours for loading/unloading. HOAs commonly prohibit entirely.
RVs, boats, and trailers must be stored behind the front building line of the primary residence in unincorporated Hillsborough. Vehicles must be owned by the resident, currently registered, and operable. No living in RVs parked on residential property permitted except during active hurricane evacuation. Boats common given Tampa Bay, Hillsborough River, and Alafia River access. Screening with fence or landscaping required if visible from street. Most planned communities (FishHawk, Westchase, Wesley Chapel) prohibit RV/boat parking entirely via HOA covenants.
Improper RV storage: 100 dollars first offense, escalating to 500 dollars. Living in RV: code enforcement lien possible. Unregistered trailer: additional 75 dollar citation.
