How it works

On streets, the Traffic Regulation Bylaw 1856 bans parking for more than 72 consecutive hours and parking on a sidewalk or boulevard. It also bans overnight parking of RVs, campers, commercial vehicles or trailers on Beach Avenue. On your own lot, the Zoning Bylaw 2400 (section 5.7) sets the limits.

Steps

For street parking, move the vehicle before 72 hours are up, and never leave an RV or trailer overnight on Beach Avenue.
On your lot in a residential zone, keep to no more than 2 recreational vehicles, 1 unlicensed trailer, 1 unlicensed vehicle, and 5 vehicles stored outside in total.
Ask Bylaw Enforcement (250-767-3710) if your zone or lot is unusual.

Good to know

Boats, ATVs, snowmobiles and personal watercraft count as recreational vehicles in the zoning bylaw. RVs over 12.2 m (40 ft) are not allowed.
Boats and trailers may not be left overnight in parks, on beaches or on boulevards (Park Regulation Bylaw 2089). Camping or setting up a camper in a park is banned.
Living in a tent, trailer, motor home or RV on a lot is not allowed unless the zoning bylaw permits it.
Bylaw notices (Bylaw 2275), $90 if paid within 14 days and $110 after 28: $100 for parking over 72 hours, overnight RV or trailer parking on Beach Avenue, or too many vehicles or RVs on a lot. Living in an RV or trailer on a lot is $250. Camping in a park is $50, and an overnight boat trailer in a park is $50.
The ticket schedule also mentions District parking lots for the overnight rule; the bylaw text says Beach Avenue only.
