Lethbridge aldermen will take nearly a month to mull over a proposed bylaw limiting recreational vehicle parking in the southern Alberta city.
None of the approximately 75 people who spoke at Monday's public hearing was in favour of the changes, which would limit the amount of time RV owners can park a motor home in a driveway or backyard.
The bylaw, which aldermen will vote on June 25, would force owners to move their vehicles after 48 hours or face fines and possibly jail.
Upset motorhome owners said Monday that the changes violated their rights to store what they want on their property.
"Clearly I acknowledge that I've struck a nerve," said city solicitor Doug Hudson, who authored the proposed bylaw.
In the leadup to the public hearing, more than 330 people wrote letters opposing the bylaw outright, compared to just 30 supporting documents.
