How it works
On private property, the Zoning Bylaw No. 508 (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

- 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.
