Before you go

These open questions need confirmation; Wayproof does not fill them with guesses.

How should the district conditional generator rule and Del Valle's stricter no-generator rule be presented together?

Ordinance 38 prohibits generator use when it disturbs campers; the current Del Valle camping sources prohibit generators categorically. The site-specific rule is stricter, not contradicted.

Open question. Linked evidence does not resolve this gap.
