What to do about the RV guy on my Brentwood street - latimes.com

"Will his eyesore of an RV lower property values?"
__________
There is a drama unfolding on the street in front of my condo building in Brentwood. For the last four months, an RV with a trailer hitch has been regularly parked on the block. Clunky and well worn, it easily takes up two parking spaces. A fluffy white American Eskimo dog often perches in the passenger seat.

How to get the man who lives in the RV off our block has been a constant topic of discussion in my building. He complies with most city ordinances. He drives off the block for weekly street cleanings. He seems to move his RV just enough to avoid being towed. There is a city law against living or sleeping in your car, but it's difficult to enforce and is being challenged in court.

He says he is willing to work at almost anything. So I have a proposition for my neighbors. Instead of putting all that effort into making calls to impose new restrictions, what if we made a few phone calls to homeless advocates who might help find Alexander-Alizadeh some work and a place to live?
