Thanks for all the quick replies! I'm calming down. There's no place else on our property to park the thing, because our house is 50 feet back from the street, and the camper needs to be 40 feet back. It's 23 feet long, so it wouldn't fit there. And I don't have the energy to extend the driveway around to the back, nor do I think the camper could make the corner.

The zoning officer sent a copy of the regulations, and it looks like we're cooked, unless we park the thing sideways in front of our front door (which is tempting)!

We've been paying $45 a month for the past several years to store a trailer elsewhere, but now that we have the vehicle, we thought we were in the clear to park it in our own driveway.

I do intend to have my son park his junk there from now on. . . That's OK, because it's not a vehicle "designed for use for human habitation."

(They're definitely off my guest list, nor will we run to help them next time something breaks).
