Title: north port riding Post by: shulco1 on July 11, 2006, 03:32:29 PM The city commission of North port has voted 4 - 1 in favor of an atv and camping ban. So that means as of last night it is officially against the law to ride an atv or camp in the city of North port.We at north port off road association are looking for a civil liberty lawyer to fight this issue. We feel our right to be heard was denied by the commissioners and that they did not give us due consideration to find an alternative to an out right ban.If you are a civil liberty attorney or know a good one please go onto www.northportoffroad.com and let yourself be known to our group. Thank You for reading this post and for whatever help you may render. I would also like to invite any of you to please accept this invitation and join our association. Thats www.northportoffroad.com

The North Port City Council has voted to ban camping and ATV riding in the city.

City Commissioner Barbara Gross said this will protect the public property and the private property owners. Police can now fine rogue rides between $100 and $1,000 for infractions.

This So people that live there can't legally ride anywhere within the city - but the city is going to allow the police to get 2 ATV's. I thought even the police had to follow the LAW.
