Nothing worse than a yard with cars parked all over. with half the cars
torn apart and not working, it to destroy the resale value of all the
homes close by.


Our properties are private (heh) and not subject to HOA restrictions, but
*are* subject to town ordinances, conservation, etc. I had a go-a-round
with the town because I was clearing some ditches of old branches, leaves,
etc. so the water would flow better. Long story short, it took 2 years,
lawyer fees and a environmental scientist consultant to accomplish what I
could have done in an afternoon.

During this experience I got so ticked off that I started reviewing some of
the town ordinances. One, common to many towns, permits only one
unregistered vehicle to be on any property. We happen to own three adjacent
but irregularly shaped lots, all three of which meet at one point at the end
of our driveway. I seriously considered purchasing three old, rusty
"clunker" type cars and parking them next to each other where the lots meet,
each on a separate lot, just to **** the town administrators off. My wife
convinced me to be a little more rational.

Eisboch,
You are an impetuous individual, I am sure you wife is used to
"convincing you to be a little more rational".
