Apple Valley residents, say goodbye to car clutter on your streets. The city is laying down the law on residential parking, capping the number of passenger vehicles that can park outside any home to a strict four. But here's the kicker: Folks can buy their way into fitting two more rides on their property. According to a recent announcement by the City of Apple Valley, if you have a spare $30.00 burning a hole in your pocket each year, you're golden for a six-car stash.
For anyone trying to squeak by without registering their wheels, think again. Apple Valley's Code Enforcement team has set up a hotline faster than you can to illegally park your fifth car. The city mandates cars must still rest peacefully on "an approved hard surface." as per the City announcement.

Don't think your boat, camper, or trailer will run afoul of the rules. The city’s Planning Division made it clear that this limit doesn't apply to recreational vehicles and trailers of any stripe. The four-vehicle rule is strictly for passenger vehicles, so your weekend warrior projects and getaway gear are safe.
