St. Michael Code Sec. 155.039 permits no more than two recreational vehicles or pieces of equipment (snowmobiles, boats, ATVs, trailers) to be stored outdoors on a residential lot, and only in the driveway, the rear yard, or one open surfaced space alongside the garage with a 5-foot green-space buffer to the side property line.
Sec. 155.039 is the city's Exterior Storage zoning standard. Residential lots may store two recreational items outdoors total — when equipment is on a trailer, the trailer and equipment count as one item. Permitted storage locations are: (1) the driveway leading directly into the garage, (2) the rear yard, or (3) one open surfaced (gravel, asphalt, or concrete) space along the side of the garage, provided a minimum 5-foot green-space strip is kept between that space and the side property line. The section also forbids using yards for general storage of materials, parts, or junk visible to neighbors. Front-yard or boulevard storage is not allowed.
Non-conforming RV/boat storage is a zoning violation subject to abatement under the nuisance enforcement provisions of Chapter 91 — misdemeanor under Sec. 10.99 with up to $1,000 fine and 90 days in jail. The city may also order removal at owner expense.
