Are you talking about parking on your own property or the public streets in Montgomery County?

See the funny thing is, someone else pumps our gas, and compared to our norther and southern neighbors who pump their own, we're still paying less than them. Figure that one out.

Never had too much trouble with the gas pumping, since bout all they do is stick it in, and push the grade button. I tend to top off my own tank since the attendant doesn't want to stand there for 15 minutes to squeeze the last two gallons in.

Hoping this one comes up for vote again, with the prices as high as they are, enough folks might think it time to go to pump it yourself and we can finally do away with the attendant mess.

Just don't park on-the-streets, and you won't be effected by the law, is my read on it.

Better yet, why not go rent a storage facility. Too many RVs, boats, trailers, etc. on-the-streets, are just an eyesore to most.


I have a sweet tender nature, however I enjoy sharing my thoughts and opinions.

It is a shame that you buy a home and pay god knows how much in taxes and they just take every right away from you... Montgomery county is going to make children walk up to two miles to school.. Now, nothing wrong with that if they have sidewalks all the way to school and they don't have to cross major streets because of gas prices... They need to worry about poop like that instead of worrying about a RV parked in front of someones home... Idiots... Get out and vote.... Makes a difference... JMHO

On the street - the home owners association nazis don't allow the vehicles on the property.

If it's listed in the Yellow Pages, the government shouldn't be messing around with it.

Just remember that a couple years ago they tried to ban smoking in your own home in Montgomery county, that is just brazen disregard for individual rights and we all need to pay attention to who we vote for. The do-goders mean well but they have to know not to beat us over the head with whatever authority they are pushing.

Also most people don't reflect very much on the individual freedoms we have lost over the years for our own good.

WA tax on fuel is higher than OR by at least 5ยข a gallon and probably more. But the difference at the pumps is usually less than that. Go figure that one out!

Ask the British, Canadians and Australians how that is working out for them!!
