"You want to be careful of this restoration issue," Smith ordinance enforceable. "Inoperable meant it just doesn't run," Smith said. "Well, all someone would have to do, for example, is replace a spark plug and it would run. That way they could just leave it there." The new definition includes any vehicle that does not have current registration tags or is unable, for any reason, to be moved under the power of its own engine. Commissioners expressed concern that the new ordi Peters said. Commissioners also suggested a time cap be put on residents who have recreational vehicles, like trailers. Residents will have 12 months after their registration expires to reregister, or they will be asked to remove said. "I think that some people will twist this some."

'TRep. Karen Morgan, Heights, said ffienew wording gives principals more discretion. "We have found that this is something that would be very helpful. It makes it easier for schools to enforce those policies," she said. ,u'For Mt. Loafer, Principal LeJeanne Partridge said simply "solving the issue at Mt. Loafer makes us more unified. It's not a choice anymore. The debate has ended." Formerly, parents could deeide within a certain window of time to have their child not wear the school uniform for any reason.
