Full Breakdown
Sec. 7-4 of the Town of Pageland Zoning Ordinance restricts where recreational vehicles and boats can sit on residential property. Any RV or boat exceeding 17 feet cannot be parked or stored in a required front or side yard setback area, or within 5 feet of the rear lot line, in a residential district. Two exceptions apply: the vehicle may be parked anywhere on the premises for up to 24 hours while loading or unloading, and an RV may be used for temporary lodging for up to three days.
Beyond the size and setback rule, the section separately bars parking, storing, or keeping any boat or trailer in a public street, right-of-way, alley, or private property in a residential district unless it meets one of several screening exceptions. Those exceptions allow a boat or trailer parked entirely inside a closed garage or a vegetation-screened, roofed carport, or one 10 feet or shorter in height kept behind a six-foot privacy fence with any portion above the fence covered by a form-fitting cover kept free of tears, fading, or accumulated dirt.
, a rowboat or canoe up to 14 feet may be kept in the rear yard without screening, and boats or trailers used for a Town, County, or State function are exempt.
Violations & Fines
Parking an RV or boat over 17 feet in a residential front or side setback, or within 5 feet of the rear lot line, beyond the 24-hour loading exception violates Sec. 7-4, as does keeping an unscreened boat or trailer in a residential street, right-of-way, or yard outside the listed exceptions; the Zoning Administrator enforces the section.
