In unincorporated Pinal County, RVs and boats (both count as recreational vehicles) may be stored on residential lots but the outdoor unit must sit on a dustproof surface in a side or rear yard, screened by a solid 7-foot wall or fence. Front-yard parking is temporary only.
Pinal County's Development Services Code (2.185.060) treats travel trailers, motorhomes, boats and boat trailers alike as recreational vehicles. On lots under 35,000 sq ft, one RV may be kept outside an enclosed garage if it is on a dustproof surface in a side or rear yard, fully screened from streets and neighbors by a solid wall, fence or gate at least seven feet tall. Larger lots (35,000+ sq ft) allow up to five, scaling one per 5,000 sq ft. RVs can't connect to utilities (except to charge the battery) or be lived in without a permit. Front-yard parking is limited to 72 consecutive hours per week. Cities set their own rules.
Zoning violations are a Class 2 misdemeanor under A.R.S. 11-808, with each day a separate offense; civil penalties up to $750/day may also apply.
