Letter: Time to move transient RVs out of Seaside by George Sticka – April 5, 2021

The transient RVs that are being allowed to camp for months across from the public restrooms at 12th and Necanicum need to be moved out of town. These people have expired registration dating back to 2015, they have no insurance, their RVs are not fully functional, some don’t even run, doubtful they have valid divers licenses.

Why is this allowed?

1. The biggest reason is that the RVs can’t be towed because they have a negative value of thousands of dollars. These rigs cost big money to dispose of, nobody will tow them because nobody wants to be stuck paying to get rid of them. Consequently the police don’t even bother enforcing any registration or licensing or insurance laws….
