Vehicles outside a building must be 1.5 m back from the curb or edge of the roadway and licensed. An RV may have no skirting and no sewer hookups, and a District permit is required.\n\nOn a street, the [ticket schedule](<https://districtoftaylor.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/468-1993-Municipal-Ticket-Information-Utilization-Bylaw-Consolidated-for-Convenience-Purposes-Only.pdf>) lists offences for parking over 72 hours without moving, an unlicensed vehicle or trailer on a road, a commercial trailer over 2 hours, and an unattached commercial trailer on a street without a permit. The street rules are in the [Traffic and Parking Bylaw](<https://districtoftaylor.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/718-2006-Bylaw-to-Regulate-Traffic-and-Parking-in-the-District-of-Taylor.pdf>).\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Call the District Office at 250-789-3392 to ask about the RV permit.\n2. Keep the RV, boat or trailer within the sizes above and the 1.5 m setback.\n3. Move any street-parked vehicle before 72 hours are up.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- Living in an RV is not permitted on a lot, except as temporary accommodation in a campground. Using a vehicle as living quarters on a street is a ticketable offence.\n- Fines: $100 first offence, $200 second and each later offence for most of these parking offences. Parking in a disabled space or breaching parking standards is $50 and $100.","sources":[{"url":"https://taylor.civicweb.net/document/121760/","title":"Zoning Bylaw No. 898, 2025 (readable copy on the District's CivicWeb site)","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://districtoftaylor.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/468-1993-Municipal-Ticket-Information-Utilization-Bylaw-Consolidated-for-Convenience-Purposes-Only.pdf","title":"Municipal Ticket Information Utilization Bylaw No. 468, 1993, consolidated for convenience (PDF)","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://districtoftaylor.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/718-2006-Bylaw-to-Regulate-Traffic-and-Parking-in-the-District-of-Taylor.pdf","title":"Traffic and Parking Bylaw No. 718, 2006 (PDF)","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://districtoftaylor.com/bylaws/","title":"Bylaws, District of Taylor","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 5 of 5 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/taylor/rv-boat-trailer-parking/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/taylor/rv-boat-trailer-parking.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/taylor/rv-boat-trailer-parking.json"}}
