This petition is to show that Cape Coral is a community with a changing demographic. The boat and commercial vehicle ordinances are outdated and need to be changed. There are many growing families in this community. It isn't just a retiree area.

Cape Coral claims to be a boaters paradise but we can't even bring them home to work on them or clean them without getting notices. Then when we comply with the notice we still have to deal with hearings.

There are many hard working members of this community in the service industry like plumbers and electricians. Many of these folks get to bring their company vehicles home which is part of their compensation package. They should be allowed.

A small suggestion would be a legally registered boat and trailer with no flat tires. Also a single axle work vehicle. These would allow most to be in compliance without making the area trashy.

If you are in support of either or both of these let's work together and help the council push for change.

Also for those in favor please shoot an email to David Stokes or the mayor with a quick positive note. http://www.capecoral.net/government/city_governmen...

There will be a workshop at the council meeting on March 26th. Please show up and help us get this moving forward.
