When Home Has No Place to Park

In the economis downturn that we are experiencing right now, more and more people are forced otu of their homes and into their cars.

Venice streets in Southern California, due to its forgiving weather, is currently the home of than 250 vehicles  according to the  Los Angeles Home less Services.

In the past, these mobiel homes were quite tolerable by residents, but, increasingly, the proliferation of R.V.’s in this gentrifying neighborhood has prompted efforts to remove them.

There have been many propostions by residents to establish overnght parking restrictions, but the California Coastal Commission twice vetoed the plan. However, a recent incident involving an R.V. owner’s arrest on charges of dumping sewage into the street has accelerated efforts to remove vehicle-dwellers. beginning in the first week of October, oversize vehicles will be banned from the beach parking lots; an ordinance banning them from parking on the street overnight could take effect within a month.

I personally am not affected by these mobile homes so i dont really want to be overly critical of either side. Its irresposible and foul for those individuals who would do such a thing as randonly dumping suige, but at the same time, where else are they going to dump it if they cant afford it.
Its mean and selfish for those individuals who are forcing RV homes to move, but at the same time, i wouldnt want an RV in front of my house either.

Instead of focusing so much on getting rid of these RV, I really think more attention should be put to putting them in homes...or even just providing them wit a place to park. I mean, if people have a safe place to go, theres probably less incentive to roam the streets and dump thier poop in random places.
