Unreasonable town ordinance

[Wallace Craig]

Yes gentlemen, FMCA does have such a group although I don't know how active it
is. At least they might have some advise about dealing with the ordinance. The
ACLU is not where you need to go. One avenue that is always effective is to
identify the sponsor of the ordinance and to go after them politically. Running
against them in the next election or finding a canidate is good if you are
willing to go that far.

Gardner,

When it's the town, you really have few choices other than move it or
face the fines. If it's a home owner's association, you can ignore
them for a long time. Don't ask how I know! HOAs have almost always
forgotten/chosen not to enforce some other parts of the covenants, so
it's tough for them to have unilateral enforcement of 'some'
convenants and not others.

You say it says you can't store it unless you have a garage. Big loop
hole? How do you think the neighbors will like your new "Bird House"? LOL

I find it hard to believe that they can restrict the storage of RVs at
private storage facilities when they also have ordinances against
storing them at home. Are you sure about that one? That's a stupid
double whammy that effectively prohibits ownership of RVs in that
town. Also seems like an ACLU lawsuit waiting to happen. Doesn't
FMCA have a lobby group that tackles such restrictive anti-RV problems?
