RVs in Glendora
The nearly 870 RV owners in Glendora got a break from their City Council last week, Dan Abendschein reports.
Recreational vehicle owners won a partial victory this week after the city changed an ordinance regulating the vehicles. On Tuesday, the City Council, on a 4-1 vote, dropped a requirement that would have forced owners to have six-foot fences on their yards to block street views of the massive vehicles.
The city is expected to pass regulations this month that would required RV owners to park their vehicles in a side yard or backyard or apply for a permit to park their vehicles at least 25 feet from the front of their property.
Abenschein also reports that a survey from last August showed 873 RVs parked at city residences. ... About 42 percent of the RVs surveyed were stored in ways that would be a violation of the new ordinance, even with the amendment, officials said.
The RV owners appeared to be OK with the change from what I read in the story. As for the neighbors that have to look at those RV's everyday, I wonder what they think about the proposed changes.

In Arcadia, there is a house with a Greyhound-type bus parked in the front yard. I can't see how that has been tolerated for so many years.
