All I can suggest for you is to move! Sounds awful, but that's what we did.
Lived in the same town in Indiana for 16 years. 6 years at one house, 10 years at another. We had a travel trailer of some sort the entire time parked beside the house.
Then one day we received a notice on the door we were in violation of the city ordinances and had to move the trailer. We could have put it in the back yard, if we could have navigated it back there. But we couldn't.
We checked zoning, city ordinances, everything the rule was, the camper had to be parked 3 times the height from the property line. That means, if the tallest spot on your camper was 10 feet tall, it had to be no closer than 30 feet from your property line. No one had space like that.
Well, we did move the camper out and parked it for a short while on the wife's parent's farm about 60 miles away. Meanwhile, we threw the house up for sale and bought another house in the next county over where we could park it on our own property. And then brought the camper home, and we've been driveway camping ever since. That was 10 years ago now. It was the best decision we could have made.
Sometimes, you just have to move to be happy.
Our philosophy is, we sleep wherever our camper is! And, if the rules ever change we are are currently at ... the house goes up for sale again, only this time, we'll take the camper and just disappear forever!
