Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the RV park in front of my house for more than
three consecutive days?
A: Each permit is good for three consecutive days.
Each property will have the ability to get six permits each calendar year. If
you are requiring a length longer than three days, you will need to get a new
permit.
Q: What if I don’t know my utility billing account number
and it’s a weekend?
A: Your utility billing account information is available
online 24/7 through a Your Online Utilities (Y.O.U.) account. If you
think you’ll need an RV parking permit during the year, sign up now for your

Q: What if I need more than six permits a year?
A: Currently, property owners may not receive more than
six permits per year. If an RV is parked next to your property without a
permit, it is subject to ticketing and tow.
Q: Do I need to print out my RV permit email, or can I
keep it on my phone as proof?
A: No, you do not need to print or display the permit on your vehicle, but please retain the RV permit email you receive as proof of having a valid permit.
Q: Can the RV park in front of my house for a few hours
without a permit?
A: You may park an RV at your house without a permit for
the purposes of immediate loading and unloading only. It should be apparent to
an inspector or police officer that loading/unloading activity is taking place.
Q: What if I have a Rockwood PUD account, but I’m a
Gresham resident?
A: If you are a Rockwood People’s Utility District
customer, you still have a City of Gresham utility account for wastewater,
stormwater and Police/Fire/Parks fee billing. Your utility billing account
information is available online 24/7 through a Your Online Utilities (Y.O.U.) account.
