| So I've had an ongoing relationship with the Code Enforcement Ocifer. In this municipality, a homeowner can have no more than two unregistered vehicles on their property. I had two Camino's and some wheels stacked to the side of the shed. It did look like a sh!thole, but we cleaned it up. I told him that the Camino's would be gone by June 1st . Which, they are gone. Does anyone know about a loophole to get this Dick off my back? BTW, for real, the guy's name is DICK! | |

| NH state law allows at least one unregistered vehicle. Towns can't lower to less than 1. | |
