I'm honestly considering it at this point. I want to get the physical letters from my landlord as "evidence" lol

Give or take a few days. At one point it was also take to a garage, so it was even gone for a few days. The letter says it "was observed" on November 28th, so even less time than that potentially.

Maybe I ought to file a report with the police and see what they think. Worst case scenario is that they tell me I'm wasting their time lol.

Thanks, I plan on contacting their office with some questions. And that's crazy about the fence haha. How do they come up with this stuff?

I think in this case it would be the municipality? The car is behind another car most of the time, and they say that it has to be concealed from all sides.

That's what I would have thought, but they specifically say "A covering consisting of a tarpaulin or other similar material shall not be considered adequate for such purposes".

Going off of my county, and I would think this applies to most counties, these rules only apply if the vehicle is visible from the street, or even another property. According to Franklin, I could surround the car in a 7' tall fence and that would be A-okay. I would imagine a garage would be more than fine.

Thank you for the advice. I had the sneaking suspicion that if they went and did something as brazen as this, then they could. But you never know. Figured I'd ask around just in case.

Too much time one their hands I guess. Even if someone reported me, I'm still trying to figure out if someone can legally come put their grubby mitts over my car, even if they are a borough official. Thought they would have asked first maybe.

None really. He just texted me a picture of the letter and was like "Hey, you might want to deal with this". And I'm on friendly terms with the guy. He knew about the car beforehand, and had no problems with it. I don't think either of us knew about this specific rule. Obviously I don't want any violation fees getting sent to him, so I just told him I would deal with it.

And I completely understand that. But in this case, someone saw a covered vehicle and went out of their way to confirm their suspicions. Which, hey, if you're a cop with a warrant, then by all means. Joe Schmoe down at the borough on the other hand...

That would be nice. And it's not like I'm trying to be a Karen about it, I just feel like they're bullying people. They even go out of their way to say that a cover is not enough. It has to be a screen/fence/hedge that's at least 7 feet tall. I feel like would be an even bigger eyesore lol.

Wow, I would have thought things would be more strict up there too. But yeah, the car is registered and insured. In Franklin's defense, the ordinance is clear, unfortunately. Just can't believe someone would flag it down since it's nowhere close to looking like rust bucket.

Which is the part that annoys me. Not that I need time, since I have 30 days to get it inspected, but fact that someone walked up my driveway and touched my car.
