Default On street parking

We own a home in TV at the end of a dead end street. The road in front of our home is not part of a cul de sac. Our home faces the street. The front of our house faces the side of the across the street neighbor's house. Is he allowed to park his RV there? It isnt pleasant to look at this when we are sitting on our front patio. I wouldnt even think it would be allowed. Any input on Village rules would be appreciated. TYIA.

Call Community Standards in the morning for correct info. I do not think RVs are allowed on streets for longer than 3 days to load or empty.

And yet: if it is not in a villa neighborhood or Marion County, the roads are public to all and The Villages has no jurisdiction.

I’m in Sumter and the 3 day rule applies. Perhaps in the bylaws or perhaps just respectful neighbors ?

I'm in a villa neighborhood. The Villages ACC visited our neighborhood and said that our streets are county streets, anyone can park there. I believe the "3 day rule" for RVs also applies, but that said, it's still a county road. I don't think The Villages can actually enforce any street parking rules.

Check with ARC. I feel for your situation.

Just to be clear, in Sumter County on public roads The Villages' made 3 day rule has no legal significance. If you live in Sumter and are concerned about parking on the public streets, check with the county.

There are a "rules" in the Village covenants that are totally unenforceable.

I’m not concerned.

Our deed restrictions specifically state that our own vehicles are to be parked in our own driveways.

Maybe if you park your car in front of his house for a few days he will get the hint.

I would go talk to the owner ask to store it elsewhere , the consequences for not being cooperative might not be good.lol

If you're in a patio villa, is the RV so wide that an emergency vehicle would be unable to get to your house? Even if on street parking is allowed emergency vehicles have to be able to get through to you.

unless they're constantly taking off on the weekends (which currently is doubtful) they're just being cheap

there are plenty of places one can store an RV if they wanted to....he knows leaving it there is not the accepted norm

too bad you have a neighbor that believes it's all about him....had one of those folks across the street from me when we lived up north (we too were at the end of a 'dead end' street
