Council members reviewed ordinance 2025-OR-07, which would amend local rules to prohibit parking mobile homes and travel trailers in driveways, lots, or streets and to prohibit living in such trailers. Members asked staff to broaden the ordinance language so the prohibition applies to "any vehicle," not only to trailers, to avoid ambiguity in enforcement.
The minutes record the council's request to adjust the ordinance text; no final vote was recorded during the work session. The proposed change seeks to make enforcement clearer if other vehicle types are used for residential occupancy or repeated street parking.
