From July 30, 2012 to Aug. 1 of this year, the police gave out a total seven citations to RV owners for overstaying the 72-hour parking restriction, a staff report on the matter said. 

"The current RV parking standards and 72-hour street parking limitations seem to be working well as indicated by the code compliance sweep and police department report," the report concluded.
