The exceptions are one boat or vessel up to 10 m long and 3.5 m wide, and one trailer or motor home. One truck or commercial vehicle is also allowed. The R-3A Residential and Recreational district separately lists motorhomes, recreational trailers and fifth wheels, and truck and camper as permitted uses.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- Street parking: the [Traffic By-law No. 55](<https://granisle.civicweb.net/document/1917/>) has no parking rules for RVs, boats or trailers that we could find, and no other street-parking bylaw is posted.\n- Living in an RV: on a street or other highway, no. The Traffic By-law bars camping there by day or night. For private lots, the bylaws read say nothing, so ask the Village Office.\n- No ticket amount is set for RV, boat or trailer parking or storage.\n- Questions: Village Office, 250.697.2248.","sources":[{"url":"https://granisle.civicweb.net/document/1691/","title":"Zoning Bylaw No. 508, 2019 (PDF), Village of Granisle","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://granisle.civicweb.net/document/1917/","title":"Traffic By-law No. 55, 1975 (PDF), Village of Granisle","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 3 of 5 facts was matched to the official text; 2 are recorded as not set."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/granisle/rv-boat-trailer-parking/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/granisle/rv-boat-trailer-parking.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/granisle/rv-boat-trailer-parking.json"}}
