No person may park any vehicle on the streets in an unincorporated Ada County residential area for a continuous period exceeding 7 days. RVs, motor homes and camp trailers are further limited to 72 hours. Inside incorporated cities, the city's traffic code controls.
Ada County Code Chapter 6-5 regulates parking of both motorized and unmotorized vehicles on streets in unincorporated residential areas. Section 6-5-3 sets a 7-day cap for any vehicle parked continuously and a 72-hour cap for motor homes, travel trailers and camp trailers, regardless of whether they are hitched to a tow vehicle. The rule reaches only unincorporated (county-jurisdiction) streets; streets inside Boise, Meridian, Eagle, Kuna and Star fall under those cities' own traffic and parking ordinances. Enforcement is by the Ada County Sheriff.
Ada County Sheriff may tag, cite and tow vehicles exceeding the 7-day (or 72-hour RV) limit at the owner's expense.
