As I travel through town I see many campers and RVs on our city streets — some with residents, some empty.
The ones with residents constitute their own set of problems and I’ll leave it to others to figure out how to deal with those.
My concern is with the campers and RVs that stand empty on neighborhood streets.
We have one on Bately Court which takes up valuable parking space in this high density residential zone. The owner of this outsized vehicle is hip to the 72-hour ordinance and moves the camper by several inches every three days to avoid getting towed.
My landlord, property manager and I have contacted the police several times and there’s nothing they can do as long as the owner is using this strategy.
This isn’t the only outsize recreational vehicle taking up valuable parking space in Sebastopol.
There are many others— always in the same spot, always using Sebastopol streets as their personal garages.
I hope city council passes the ordinance which would ban RV parking on city streets during daylight hours.
Thank you,
