RVs, boats, and trailers in Lynn Haven residential areas must be stored on improved surfaces (driveway, side yard) - never in the front-yard setback or on the grass. Sec. 5.01.02(C) of the ULDC restricts accessory storage to side and rear yards.
Lynn Haven enforces residential RV and boat parking through the ULDC accessory-use rules (Sec. 5.01.02) and Code Enforcement under Sec. 1-7. RVs, boats, trailers, and campers must be on an improved surface (concrete, paver, or compacted gravel driveway). Storage in the front-yard setback area or directly on the grass is treated as an accessory storage use prohibited in the front yard. Side and rear yards are the proper locations, subject to setback rules in Sec. 4.02.02. Many residential FLU categories also limit the number of recreational vehicles or boats per parcel and require screening from the street when visible. The 10-day-in-60 rule in Sec. 5.02.04 does NOT apply to RVs - that section is for portable storage units only.
Sec. 1-7 fines up to $500/day. Continuing violations trigger Code Enforcement Special Magistrate hearings under Ch. 2 Art. III.
