City wants to make home auto repair difficult

[speesh]

I had the same problem, here in Kern county California it only applies if someone complains. My cranky old neighbor called on me because I have about 10 different cars sitting around on my half acre. He complained because his dang dog always barks at us and he thought we were harassing it!
So I had to build a fence and put most of them behind it, so I passed the inspection, then while I was building it the old coot comes out yelling about "That aint good enough, I will see you in court!" Lucky for me, the old codger croaked, but now I have my place looking better anyway......
