Because the State has changed t�aese <br />classifcations,the City Code needs to be updated. <br />t ��. Types of Recreatian Vehicles: The City Cade language regulating the parking and <br />s�orzng of 'camp�rs and camper busses' is also out-of-date and should siinilarly be <br />revised to re�ect today's vehicle rypes. These tct7ns are not only out-of=date but also <br />are not all-inclusive. Matorized recreational ve6ic[es and non-motarized <br />recreational vehicles are nat individually or specif caily addressed. Historicalty in <br />Roseville, matorized RV's have been regulated similar to a�tomobiles whereas noil- <br />motorized RV's l�ave been regulated similar to trailers. The results currently are: <br />A. Matorized RVs can be parkedlstored on a hard-surfaced driveway <br />anywhere on a property. <br />B. Nan-motorized RV's must be parked/stored in a side or rear yard, either <br />on a hard-surface or on grass. They are also allowed in a front yard area (such <br />as a driveway} for a maxiir�urr; of three days. <br />a �� This has caused confusion and compla�nts frorn residents. Based on comments we've <br />received, most feel these two vehicle rypes shauid be regulated in the satne manner. <br />�.� Possible Solutions <br />�:1 �'irst, update #he outdated cflde language regarding trailer ciassifications witl�out <br />changing the intent of the original code section (407,03Q).
