Stafford restricts where recreational vehicles, boats, and trailers may be parked or stored on residentially zoned lots through its Chapter 102 zoning code.
Under Stafford's zoning ordinance (Chapter 102, Article VI, Section 102-131.1), recreational vehicles, boats, and trailers stored on residentially zoned property must generally be located behind the front building line and on an approved surface. Outdoor long-term storage of inoperable or unregistered RVs and trailers is prohibited, and oversized units may face additional placement restrictions. Property owners are expected to keep stored vehicles in good condition and clear of public rights-of-way. Code enforcement responds to complaints regarding visibility from the street and obstruction of sidewalks or driveways.
Violations are typically Class C misdemeanors handled in Stafford Municipal Court, with fines that can reach several hundred dollars per occurrence and continuing daily violations.
