            Cities Crack Down on 'Abandoned' RVs

            As RV rows grow, cities are targeting people living in vehicles, issuing tickets and towing under parking rules. AB 630 would let LA and Alameda counties dispose of more RVs by raising the junk threshold to $4,000. Opponents warn broad tows could remove much-needed shelter and “abandoned” is undefined. Many residents are reluctant to trade vehicles for short term shelter.
