Now all we need is for the city to stop "Taqueria Trucks" from selling on any given intersection, now thats a pathetic eyesore. Can't count the times Mr. Zindler has to have the Health Dept cite them for not having any hot running water or clean facilities. Those ugly beat up trucks just started popping up everywhere. Another black eye on our city. Looks 3rd world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdude Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Back to the topic, the link is broken so I couldn't read the story. What is the objection to parking for-sale vehicles on streets or lots? Is it only that they are considered an eyesore? Are there designated for-sale areas? I wasn't even aware this was a problem.

I know one neighborhood who is aggressive against cars like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
