She said there are over one hundred unlicensed vacation rental homes making it difficult for one code enforcement officer to enforce over 611 vacation rentals in Lake Havasu City. Ms. Stocker said residents are frustrated and asked for help from the Council. Ms. Bonnie Toy, resident, addressed the Council concerning pedestrians using the crosswalks in the downtown area intersections with flashing yellow lights.
