A California town is debating what to do about truck and trailer parking in its community.
OOIDA Member Shirley Van Cleave and her husband, Charles, are owner-operators with a single tractor-trailer rig that they use to haul specialty cargo. She said she can see both sides of the issue. On the one hand, they were among the first residents in their neighborhood to join in a petition against another neighbor who was parking 14 dump trucks on a half-acre lot in the residential community.
On the other hand, as truckers, she said she and her husband’s business has been “picked on and pushed around” by city code enforcers for parking their single vehicle in front of their property.
