Dear Mr. Prohaska,
 
I have ask that the bill be defeated.   It does not solve the problem I was trying to address and created by far more issues than I was aware of.
Thank you for you letter of concern,
 
Sincerely,
Anne

Good Afternoon Ms. Perry:

As you can see from my signature below, I’m a long way from the state of Maine. However, on June 17, I plan to retire from my community college position. I will begin a new life traveling in my RV to explore every state in the United States. Of course Maine is one of those I plan to visit. The new bill, LD114 / HP98, to restrict overnight RV parking throughout Maine certainly has me concerned. Of course I plan to visit your state parks and other RV resorts but occasionally I just need a place for the night while I’m trying to reach the next park. If I do park in a public area, I make sure to leave no evidence that I’ve been there and I’m often cleaning up after others in appreciation of my stay. If it turns out to be a store parking lot, I’m sure to get permission and go out of my way to purchase items in that store. I hate the thought of having to worry about becoming a criminal just because I have an interest to see Maine attractions. I would hope that Maine comes up with some other solution to whatever problem has caused the introduction of this bill.

Thanks for listening.
