**Cost:** Bylaw notice: vehicle, trailer, camper, motor home or boat in a residential zone $200 ($100 if paid within 14 days, $225 after 28 days); using an RV as a residence $500 ($250 / $525); parking a vehicle over 10 m long $200 ($100 / $225).

## How it works

On private property in residential zones, the [Zoning Bylaw No. 1466](<https://www.100milehouse.com/sites/default/files/2026-11/Zoning%20Bylaw%20No.%201466%2C%202026%20-%20CONSOLIDATED.pdf>) does not allow a commercial vehicle, boat, trailer or similar equipment to be parked or stored, with exceptions. In a rear or side yard you may keep one boat up to 10 m, and one trailer, camper or motor home up to 10 m, plus one commercial truck up to 7,000 kg. Derelict vehicles are limited to 30 days in a 60 day period. Rules for other zones were not checked.
