I have attempted to enlist the help of the Siouxland Trails Foundation to repeal it. How ever half of the members of the foundation are in favor of the ordinance even if it unenforced & half are not. And the last thing the foundation president wants to do is cause ripples amongst the group.
I do not mind if the ordinance is in place. What bothers me the most is not enforcing it. If it is there fine, but enforce the damn thing. Otherwise remove it. That goes for any ordinance or law.
What I think I will do is silently take on this matter myself & not advise the trails foundation I am doing so.
