Winnipeggers may soon be able to start getting their trailers and boats ready for the camping season a little earlier than normal.

The property and development committee will discuss a motion that would allow people to park their recreational vehicles, trailers, or motor homes in the driveway or side or rear lot of their home from May 1 to Oct. 31.

The current bylaw doesn’t allow those vehicles to be parked until May 15.

This was a motion that was originally tabled in 2019, and the property and development committee moved it forward back then, but nothing came of it.

The committee will discuss the motion on June 11.
