## How it works

On private property, the [Zoning Bylaw No. 508](<https://granisle.civicweb.net/document/1691/>) (s. 3.8) says boats, trailers and similar craft may not be parked or stored in the open in residential districts. 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.

## Good to know

- 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.
- 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.
- No ticket amount is set for RV, boat or trailer parking or storage.
- Questions: Village Office, 250.697.2248.
