From the transcript
The RV ordinance, maybe we need to take another pass at it, the RV piece too. But, uh, I am happy we got something on the books instead of nothing, which we had before. Okay, thank you. I would just add to that, I think I was there at that meeting, and the biggest contestion that came up is that there was some misalignment on timeline for— they allowed RVs to be 30 days in code, and the tent camping regulation was only 5 days, or 7. I think it was 7.
