Comment on When the Homeowners Association Comes for Your Homeparent

Comments

In my neighborhood? There's one just down my street. For a house with a two car garage and an alley he's got up to 8 cars at a time around his lot and parked out front. He even parks them in the narrow set backs between the houses halfway on his neighbor's land. It's kind of a pain how he practically stores broken down cars on the street that never move, they impede the street making it more cramped and less safe for me to bike around. The cars that never move turn into rat colonies. It leaks all kinds of chemicals into the alley. It seems like he often doesn't dispose of his fluids properly, I've filed a few complaints when I see it but nothing seems to ever get done. More motor oil down the storm drains into the creek and pond my kids play with I guess. He'll also let the pool get super nasty and then pump it all out into the alley every now and then. Sure is a great neighbor to have.

And that's just my street. Another neighborhood down the road has someone with rusting cars with busted windows parked in their front yard. Not the drive way, the actual yard. It's one of the first houses you drive by when you enter the neighborhood.
