Ottawa County itself does not zone RV or boat storage. Your city or township sets the rules. In Georgetown Township, RVs, campers and trailers must sit behind the front face of the home, with a limited summer driveway allowance.
Michigan cities and townships—not the county—regulate where recreational vehicles may be parked or stored, under the Michigan Zoning Enabling Act (MCL 125.3201). Georgetown Charter Township requires RVs, campers and work trailers to be parked behind the front face of the home, except that from May 1 through October 31 an RV may sit in the driveway for up to 5 days for packing and unpacking. The City of Holland separately bars trailers and nonmotorized recreational vehicles from overnight on-street parking year-round. Check your specific city or township zoning ordinance, because rules vary by lot type.
Municipal civil infraction handled by the city or township code enforcement office; typically a ticket after a written warning to move or store the RV properly.
