Opinion: Will residents tolerate RV regulation

Palo Alto's got a problem. People are parking their RVs on city streets. They're dumping their waste in the street gutters, which flows through the storm sewers and into the Bay. It's happening in residential neighborhoods and business areas. Now people are trying to solve the problem. In August, City Council's Policy and Services Committee proposed the following: 1.
