Motor homes, travel trailers and fifth-wheel trailers can be parked on a roadway for up to 36 hours.

After that, they must be relocated off-street for at least 48 hours before being parked on the street again.

“All of our parking enforcement is compliant driven, we don’t go around enforcing it but if someone was to see it – we would deal with it because it is a liability issue,” Andrew Hildebrandt, the city’s director of community standards, said.

The owner could face a fifty dollar ticket if the RV is not moved within the restricted time limit.

Construction trailers require a right-of-way permit to be parked on city streets.
