We ran into a similar situation in Coos Bay, Oregon an couple of weeks ago. We received a delightful text, saying how they loved our pristine retro coach, but we wouldn’t be allowed to park her again due to the 10- current year rule. We were surprised, however the real surprise came when we received a second text that we we driving our golf cart too fast. Lol- it has 2 speeds ; go or coast.

I get the reasons... yes, many run-down RVs along the west coast especially in the PNW- so I suppose it’s the most legal way to discriminate (or regulate) a specific type of coach/human with out question. 🙅🏼‍♀️

Keep calm and carry on- is my mantra.

Well, lah 'te dah. They make up all sorts of stories as to why they do not
want the "more experienced" motor coaches, but the reality of it all is,
that there is a HUGE problem with barely able to to move coaches setting up
as permanent residents in city streets, cul de sacs, closed shopping
centers, RV parks, etc.
Mostly homeless people. When every off-ramp, on every freeway in the
Portland/Salem Interstate 5 corridor is littered with tents and tarps and
outright garbage, abandoned shopping carts, etc. Something that every
American should be ashamed of. What is happening, here? Does every State
across America have similar problems? What say you guys out there?
