How it works
On your own property, the Zoning Bylaw No. 607, 2025 says a parcel in a residential zone with up to two dwelling units may not park or store more than five vehicles outside a building. For this rule, "vehicle" means any automobile, recreational vehicle or boat. Commercial vehicles over 5 tonnes are barred unless they are inside a building.
On the street, the rules would be in the Bylaw No. 209, 1985, Traffic Control, which the Village posts only as a scanned image. Street limits and fines are not stated here.
