The Seattle City Council on 13 November failed to secure the six votes needed to override Mayor Katie Wilson's veto of its RV permit legislation. The bill would have restricted overnight RV parking unless people obtained a permit and agreed to work with caseworkers, with unauthorised vehicles at risk of impoundment. In her first veto, Wilson cited concerns about implementation, cost, legal challenges and effectiveness, and signed an executive order to expand outreach and create a work group. Councilmember Rob Saka flipped his vote, blocking the override. The work group is to return recommendations within 60 days, with legislation planned by March.
