Summary

Ordinance No. 191 adds definitions for recreational vehicles, sets a 24-hour on-street parking limit, and requires that RVs be parked in front of the owner's property; the change aims to reduce visibility and safety hazards caused by long-term on-street camping.

The council adopted Ordinance No. 191, which amends Chapter 71.05 to define recreational vehicles and limit on-street parking of such vehicles to 24 hours, and requires that any parked recreational vehicle be positioned directly in front of the owner's property. City Planner Lassonde said the Traffic & Safety Committee recommended the changes after observing safety and visibility issues on residential streets.

Supporters on the committee argued the restriction addresses driver visibility and child-safety concerns. The ordinance passed with all council members voting aye.
