I disagree with this decision from Colossal Katie, but more than that I find it disappointing that she's taking the position "it's too hard;" I would respect "I have ideological disagreements" much more

Wilson said she vetoed that part of the legislation because of efficacy concerns. In her letter explaining the veto, she referenced difficulties conducting and using a one-time census of RV residents, RV ownership documentation challenges, administrative costs for RV storage, enforcement issues, and how permit non-compliance could increase unsheltered homelessness in Seattle.
