Section 5: OPA Board Subject: Marty and the Trailer Msg# 743747

On a related matter... the section of the DRs that deals with vehicles that can carry more than a ton being excluded from parking probably applies to 95% of all pickup trucks now made and would, thus, exclude them... a really illogical result in today's environment. The majority of truck owners have a Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado 1500 or a Dodge Ram 1500, all of which are 1/2 ton pickup trucks. This matter needs to be re-examined and a whole new set of DRs written to cover things as they now exist. Exactly. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Joe: It would be interesting to see what the court actually said in its decision. The outcome is one thing... the reasoning and "dicta" are another. Since an appeals court has apparently not ruled on this matter... how is it you know what they will decide? If Maryland is like other states... the appeals court can only deal with errors in the understanding or application of law made by a lower court. Any facts found by the lower court should stand. The DRs can say whatever OPA wants them to say, within very broad limits. So.... OPA can change to clarify anything it wants about trailers and the like. Getting the changes approved by the membership is probably much more difficult... but it should be easy to draft language saying exactly what OPA wants to say. On a related matter... the section of the DRs that deals with vehicles that can carry more than a ton being excluded from parking probably applies to 95% of all pickup trucks now made and would, thus, exclude them... a really illogical result in today's environment. This matter needs to be re-examined and a whole new set of DRs written to cover things as they now exist. Language related to the beginning of Ocean Pines is likely no longer relevant and should be discarded. These comments are my opinion and are submitted a food for thought. Jeff Knepper
