Eagan, MN Parking Rules: RV & Boat Parking (2026)

Section 9.03 defines 'recreational camping vehicle' to cover four vehicle types: a travel trailer (a portable structure on a chassis, factory-labeled 'travel trailer'), a pickup coach (mounted on a truck chassis), a motor home (built as an integral part of a self-propelled vehicle), and a camping trailer (a folding, wheel-mounted structure), all designed as temporary dwellings for travel, recreation or vacation use. Subdivision 2 makes it unlawful to leave or park any of these on or within the limits of a street or right-of-way for a continuous period exceeding 24 hours, unless the location is signed as a designated campsite or sits within a mobile home park.

Even within that 24-hour window, the vehicle cannot be occupied as living quarters while parked on the street. The section is limited to public streets and rights-of-way; it does not itself regulate storing a camping trailer, motor home or boat trailer in a private driveway or side yard, which falls under the city's separate zoning and accessory-structure rules in Chapter 11 rather than this parking chapter. Enforcement runs through the Eagan Police Department, and a violation of Chapter 9 is punished under Section 9.99, with a third violation within a rolling 12-month period treated as a misdemeanor rather than a lesser petty misdemeanor.
