No street parking bylaw is posted on the Village's Bylaws page, so ask the Village Office (250-449-2222).\n\nOn your own property, the [Property Maintenance and Standards Bylaw No. 525, 2020](https://midwaybc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/BYLAW-525-2020-Property-Maintenance-and-Standards-.pdf) treats derelict or inoperable RVs, campers, utility trailers, boat trailers and derelict boats as \"rubbish\" that an owner must not let accumulate. Rules on where, how many and what size would be in the Zoning Bylaw (No. 464, 2015). The copy on the Village site is a scanned PDF that cannot be read, so we could not check it.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- The bylaws read do not say whether you may sleep or live in an RV.\n- The fine under the Property Maintenance Bylaw is at least $150 and up to $10,000, plus costs. No parking ticket schedule is posted.\n- To report a derelict vehicle or trailer, see the unsightly property answer, or phone the Bylaw Enforcement Officer at 250-449-8353 or email midwaybylaw@shaw.ca.","sources":[{"url":"https://midwaybc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/BYLAW-525-2020-Property-Maintenance-and-Standards-.pdf","title":"Property Maintenance and Standards Bylaw No. 525, 2020 (PDF), Village of Midway","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://midwaybc.ca/bylaws-policies/","title":"Bylaws and Policies, Village of Midway","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://midwaybc.ca/village-office/","title":"Village Office, Village of Midway","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://midwaybc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/2024-Complaint-Primary-Letter.pdf","title":"Bylaw Enforcement Complaint Form (PDF), Village of Midway","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; 1 is recorded as not set; 1 could not be confirmed."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/midway/rv-boat-trailer-parking/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/midway/rv-boat-trailer-parking.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/midway/rv-boat-trailer-parking.json"}}
