Jefferson County's Zoning Resolution regulates vehicle storage in residential zoning districts. RV and recreational vehicle storage is subject to accessory use provisions. The zoning resolution includes districts for mobile home subdivisions (R-5A) with specific parking requirements.
RV and boat parking in Jefferson County residential areas is regulated by local zoning code. Common restrictions include: no front-yard storage, vehicles must be on paved surfaces, height limits for side-yard storage, and screening requirements. RVs and boats must be properly registered. Long-term storage on the street may violate parking ordinances. HOAs in suburban Birmingham, Huntsville, and Mobile communities often impose stricter visibility and storage requirements.
Zoning violation: $50 to $250 per day. Unregistered vehicle: towing possible. HOA fines separate.
