[RP TownTalk] Sell It From Your Lawn But Stay Out ofthe Streets...

[McDougall, Sherene (Law)]

Update:

I did email the Code Enforcement office but received no reply so I
called and spoke to the Code Enforcement officer, she said that you are
allowed one or two yard sales a year, but on a daily basis that was
considered a "business".  They have received several complaints re the
East/West highway homes and are investigating the matter.

First of all thanks for keeping the coot locked in the attic.

For those of you that have a life and didn't last until near the end of
the council working session, vendors did come up about 10:30-11:00.

David L. (Ward 3) started the conversation with questions about all the
Ice Cream trucks. The "Chief" reveled that they have confiscated, or
maybe he said impounded,  several "food" push carts and lots of roses.  
The fact that the fine is only $25 (the cost of a vendor's licenses) was
brought up as was the the max that the town can charge.  The Chief also
voiced frustration with the fact that the people are brought to town and
dropped off.  You ticket someone and a different "vendor" is dropped of
the next day.

The council ask for some additional information. So I would think there
may be more discussion next Monday.  Yard sales did not come up.

Lou
