Oh boy. Maybe I should have held that to myself. The horse is out of the barn. I can see New York following CA with this nonsense. Can’t help but to get pissed off quickly. Oh well, don’t kill the messenger.I accidentally started/continued a kerfuffle with this piece of news in another thread.
Oh, and impact wrenches, air compressors, and torque wrenches are tools commonly found in the homes of the majority of people I know.
As I said when it got mentioned in another thread, this isn't an uncommon thing. Even in the predominantly-conservative city I live in here in Texas there's a virtually identical city ordinance, and they do enforce it to an extent.
But this is politics????Lets keep this one on topic and focused on the original topic posted. Please no sidestep into politics, aliens, or anything else otherwise it will get moved to the off-topic forums.
It always starts small or " just a few"... Its the stepping stone for MUCH bigger laws and controlI'm curious who the targeted demographic is? Are they fining Joe Blow who's changing struts on his car in the driveway on the weekend, or going after folks who are possibly engaging in the business of running a home mechanic shop and have 4-5 non-running cars in the driveway waiting to get worked on?

They leave him alone until he pisses off the wrong person and then they'll use this benign law against him.Well, remember, I said they enforce it "to an extent".
I know a guy, right in downtown, who runs a shop out of his two-car garage with carport. He keeps everything clean, never has more than four cars at a time, and if you didn't know it was his business, you'd be clueless that it was an actual shop. They leave him alone.
On the other hand, I try to blitz out an engine swap in my driveway over the weekend and get a written warning for non-compliance.
In my opinion this is what starts stupid laws like this.. That IS what HOA's are about...... A person who abuses this affects us all.....My neighbor fixes his truck in the driveway. Crap everywhere, and it pisses me off. I live in a deed restricted neighborhood. I keep my stuff in the garage because I care. Hoa's keep the prices up, and the trash down. Politics in Cali. is a whole other deal. Not for me
Hey, I keep my dump truck (tow truck) at my house!!!!!!!!Yeh, but if Florida you can have a boat and a twenty foot camper right in front of a small lot. Also tow truck drivers park right by the front door, so they can get out quick. Some neighborhoods are a sea of crap when you drive down streets. I am ok with that if I had a bunch of toys, but I'm thinking of getting out in ten years. Then I might want my boat ready to go.
Florida is the epitomy of sprawl.... Single wide w/ green mildew on it next to million dollar homes.... NOW I know why when in Oregon you could not build just anywhere.... The person who was in charge of that law/rule must of come from Florida....Yeh, but if Florida you can have a boat and a twenty foot camper right in front of a small lot.
