This portion of the agenda is open for residents' comments.
Mayor Jim Woodward asked Council Member Bob McClasin to address the RV Parking issue currently tasked with the Code Enforcement Advisory Board. Council Member Bob McCaslin stated various comments about the revision of the RV parking Ordinance and the initial direction that the Code Enforcement Advisory Board is taking on the issue. Additionally, Council Member Bob McCaslin stated that the citizen initiated flyer that brought this issue up included lies, and that council is not going to penalize anyone for parking RV's.
---- Council Member McCaslin Fact Check = False ----
The original flyer distributed to the community regarding the RV issue can be found >>>here<<<. Everything printed within this flyer can be backed up by statements made by members of Englewood City Council.
In fact, if the ordinance goes in the direction that some Council Members and Code Enforcement Members have indicated then many people in the City will be penalized for parking RV and other utility vehicles on their own property.
Mayor Jim Woodward commented on the status of the Purchase, demolition, and redesign of Duncan Park.
