Solutions to Electric Vehicles
There is No Stopping Them! Learn How to Adapt!
Between the rising gas prices and the upcoming ban on generators, the future of not only RV travelers, but those who own and operate RV parks seems to be full of unanswered questions. At the upcoming Summit: Solutions to Change, we hope to ease your mind a little and provide a few of those answers at our “Solutions to Electric Vehicles” seminar.

Wednesday April 6
1:00 pm – 2:00 pm

Big changes are happening in the automotive and RV industries. Governor Gavin Newsom passed an executive order that directs the state to require that by 2035 all new cars and trucks sold in California will be zero-emission vehicles. Gas- and diesel-powered generators only have a few years. As an answer to these changes, Thor previewed its all-electric RV and self-propelling air stream at the 2022 Tampa RV Show. Are you ready? Do you have questions about adding a charging station or rebuilding your infrastructure? We will take a look at the future of EVs and what you need to know to keep your park relevant in a changing world. 
Register today before it's too late! There's only 8 days left before registration closes on March 25!!!
Advocacy Updates
What have we been up to?
February 24

Dyana Kelley, the President & CEO of CampCalNOW, met with Visit SLO Cal to discuss a proposal by Hipcamp to allow for incidental camping throughout San Luis Obispo County. A meeting is scheduled in May with Visit SLO Cal and county planning to engage Housing and Community Development on the project. As it currently stands, any regulatory requirements have largely been cut out of the program, not only leaving the local government susceptible to lawsuits, but also causing a sense of inequality among those campgrounds that are properly permitted and taxed, which would have to carry the load for those new campgrounds that are not required to be.
CampCalNOW will continue to monitor and engage with these entities to defeat the proposal. 

March 9

CampCalNOW President & CEO, Dyana Kelley was amongst a small group of select female executive leaders to be invited to attend a special luncheon alongside Lt Governor, Eleni Kounalakis. This gathering served as an opportunity to strengthen relationships within the travel and tourism industry. During the intimate luncheon the executives were able to shares concerns plaguing their individual industries. See the above picture of this lovely group of leading women!

March 10

SB 869 - President & CEO Dyana Kelley met with a senior staffer of Senator Connie Leyva’s regarding a bill that would require HCD (the Department of Housing and Community Development) to adopt regulations to require each employee acting in a managerial capacity on behalf of a mobile home park or recreational vehicle park to receive at least 18 hours of training the initial year, and an unspecified number of hours of follow up training each year thereafter.

CampCalNOW is working with the senator’s team to clean up the bill, add definitions, and discuss the possibility of CampCalNOW managing the training for Special Occupancy Parks rather than HCD which is already tapped out trying to manage inspections.

Senate Bill 869 is currently headed to committee March 24. Keep an eye out for updates as we move forward through this process.
