No Hoa But My Neighbor Tells Me To Move My Travel Trailer From My Drive Way Or Send Me To Court

Card image cap

Hi all, first post here asking for some help. Thanks a lot in advance.

I live in northern Kentucky and in a neighborhood with 50 ish single family houses. There is no HOA. I have a 20 ft travel trailer that is parked right in front of my drive way completely on my lot. Because it is a pretty small trailer, I am able to park my SUV completely on my drive way between my trailer and the walk way. Before I started parking the trailer 3 years ago, I checked with my immediate neighbors just in case, it bothers them. All of them have no problems. This year, one of my neighbors 4 house away told me that I need to remove the trailer and some of neighbors are not happy me having my trailer on my own drive way. He also handed me a 4-page document saying that he can sent me to court. Below is the text from the first page of that document. In that document, it says no RV allowed more than 5 days.

My question is that, am I violating some law or regulation that I had to move my small trailer? I bought the house without HOA partially for the reason I can park my trailer. Thanks!!
