CLARINGTON -- Homeowners... move that RV.
Clarington is looking at a zoning bylaw amendment that could make it illegal to park recreational vehicles in residential driveways.
"We would never allow someone to build a fence that is 12 or 15 feet high," said Ward 1 councillor Adrian Foster. "Using your driveway to store these large things is not something I think is acceptable to the vast majority of our residents."
Even campers and seasonal or off-road vehicles such as four-wheelers or snowmobiles, will be considered in the review.
But those who already have such items onsite may have a reprieve of sorts.
"While new zoning restrictions may correct future problems, they will not be able to address current issues," said a report to Clarington's General Purpose and Administration Committee. "Properties currently possessing these vehicles would have legal non-conforming status."
Staff has been directed to do more research and hold a public meeting, then present findings to council.
