Editor: Janice Valach’s letter (The Times, May 10) hits the main underlying issue about the discriminatory RV parking bylaw.
The main issues are ownership and property. If Valach does not like the view out of her living room window, she can buy some curtains. She does not own her neighbour’s driveway or their RV.
The attitude that she should be able to dictate to a neighbour what they own and store on their own property is disgusting. If she is so offended by her fellow taxpaying citizens’ possessions being within sight, then perhaps she should move.
What if, instead of an RV, her neighbour had a rusted out 1957 Chevy truck?
When will common sense and respect for the citizens of this Township be taken into consideration? I do not remember the Charter of Rights and Freedoms having an amendment that targets the owners of RVs and boats.
The Township takes this lack of logic one step further by forcing citizens to clear the sidewalks and storm drains in front of their homes in the winter.They dictate what we can store on our property and force us to go keep their property free of snow.
