That is a fantastic painting! The artist nailed it.
I would have liked to find out why this ordinance exists. It makes no sense to me.
So the neighborhood doesn’t look like a getto full of people too poor to keep their boats in the marina like decent fokes.
Theres a newish neighbourhood near me with a high percentage of reasonably cashed up retired people… nice houses with 2 car garages on small blocks. Every other house has a caravan or a boat and they almost all park them on the street.
Some of the streets have been effectively reduced to one lane in both directions, sure its legal but its a giant pain in the balls to get around.
Then don’t go there.
Yeah, Ill just tell the whole suburb that they dont get any services from the city anymore. Not a problem champ.
Oh. Hehe. You have to go there. Understood.
Probably local storage company owner lobbying. Ick.
“To keep crime down” or something
Retired neighbors with nothing better to do.
The neighbors complained because they have nothing better to do, but why was the ordinance created in the first place?
Because the neighbours with nothing better to do vote in every single election and are therefore more important to not piss off. Fuck NIMBYs.
For Christ sake, I’d go nuts if I had to see a discreetly parked boat everyday when I drive by on my way to work.
Good thing thehomeowner associationtown had some common sense here. /Sall boats are discretely parked otherwise.
Interestingly this one was actually a town ordinance, not an HOA rule!
Etienne Constable, from Seaside, California, was told in July last year by local government officials that he had to build a 6-foot fence to hide the boat from view of his neighbors.
Good thing the
homeowner associationlocal government had some common sense here. /SFTFY
A town called “Seaside” wants boats out of sight, amazing.
… if I had to see a discretely parked boat…
fyi: discreetly parked.
all boats are discretely parked otherwise.
