Additional issues in Town that often occur:

No parking of boats, RV’s, campers, trailers, or work trucks in residential areas. 48 hours is allowed in the driveway for loading, unloading, cleaning, or repairing.

i'm going to tell him to take the ticket and fight it. it doesn't appear to be an official ordinance, just an 'issue'. there doesn't appear to be any codified law for it...


long and short of it is that the town has a salaried 'code enforcement' person, and now like any government office, it's easier to make a new position than get rid of an existing position...
