COMMUNIC&TIONS AND PETITIONS, CITI2EN8 TO BE HEARD
RECREATIONAL Katie Mc Cart, 1713 Burning Bush Lane, asked the
VEHICLES: Board to review the regulation governing
PARKING IN recreational vehicles being parked in single family
RESIDENTIAL AREAS districts. Mrs. Mc Cart stated that the family RV
is parked along side the garage, out of sight of
the neighbors, however it is the policy of the
Village to enforce the prohibition on parking RV's
on a complaint basis only. Someone complained
about the parked RV and a citation was issued,
which means the RV will have to be moved and parked
on the driveway. It was noted that the neighbors
are happy to have the camper parked out of sight.
Mrs. Mc Cart asked the Board to consider the
ramifications of the by complaint basis only, since
anyone, even someone who doesn't even live in the
neighborhood, could file a complaint.
Mrs. Mc Cart also stated that she and her husband
have 8 children and with a family of 10, and
although they participate in the recycling program,
she feels the 2 can limit for garbage isn't fair to
larger families.
