Just so you guys know that I practice what I preach.
This has been the view from my front porch for at least 2 months now. We did not call the owners until at least 2-3 weeks after they knocked this trailer down and left it. We only called because trash from it was blowing in our yard. Their property rights end at my property line. They told us they'd be out the following Saturday to clean it up. About 3 Saturdays later, they still hadn't showed up. We called again and they had excuses so we called the Board of Health. They finally cleaned up some of it a few weeks ago and here is how it still sits. It was an old house trailer that was rented out. I'd rather it sit like it does now than have the douche bags that were in it last back. I think that pile of trash right by the road has sat there for 2 years now.
And just a 90 degree turn, this sits in my front yard about 10 feet from the road. I didn't need to get anyone's permission to put it up and if anyone complains about it, I can tell them to sit and spin.
I'm not saying this applies to you, but the argument many other posters made was that if these folks had been MOH awardees, then they have the right to not clean up.
Just following their logic out to its conclusion.
