Appreciate the comments. These ordinances are indicative of repressive government. We own a 2019 Winnebago, not an eyesore. It is inspected, insured and operable. I am offended by local potentates who claim having an RV parked in a long driveway somehow lowers property values or somehow obstructs some goofball's view of the tele pole in front of his house. If they're wary of RVs, then have property owners purchase an annual permit for, say, $100. Townships love money above all. We pay enough in property taxes here in PA. And enough of the lectures on not investigating this prior to the home purchase; there were other reasons for the purchase - and a bad law is a bad law.
I just don't understand why they're so hostile to RVs in general. It's not like the Clampetts are living in the driveway!
But the Clampetts could load up their truck and move to Beverly...unless an ordinance keeps their truck out. A fee wouldn't help because there is no way to legislate nice rig vs pit stop on the way to the salvage yard. Jed hit black gold, Texas Tea, so he can pay that $100.00 no problem. I would venture to say that since it is a law on the books most of your neighbors disagree that it is a bad law. I know I wouldn't want my neighborhood filled with RVs in the front lawns.
