Lol! Harrahs is the casino!  Harrods is a shop that works on heavy equipment and a few cars.

Wow.  This is quite the topic that got some tempers flaring.  OMG.

David, is this court thing a a summons from the "neat" police from the City of Howard to go to court or is this something that the county is doing?

If this is a City  of Howard request to go to court, what is the ordinance about unregistered vehicles on private property?  Can anyone answer that?

Hi Janet,
This is indeed from the neat police (city).  This is over two vehicles, (unregistered) that the city refers to as abbandoned and sitting on private property.

Well, I took time out today to drive around town and not a lot has changed.  They have for some reason cut the grass down around the county yard, looks nice.  Makes it a lot easier to see all the junk vehicles within the confines of the yard.  To bad I forgot my Camera today!  Oh well, maybe next time.

So, what is the ordinance about having unregistered vehicles on private property?  I do know that if you don't have a vehicle registered, that means you are not paying taxes on those vehicles unless you have them on your personal property list with the appraiser's office.  We own an old, old truck that we pay taxes on every year as personal property and we also pay personal property taxes on a pickup trailer that we have out in the country.

Not knowing what the ordinance is, then it is hard to comment about what the "neat police" are doing, but I do know you should be paying taxes on those vehicles if they are not registered.

I think  that because you got a ticket it is none of my business, but it truly PISSES ME OFF because you think you need to involve someone else in your problem. I can clean my little mess up, when I am damb good and ready. I dont need some wining ass* taking pics of my little mess and posting them in protest . Thanks to the pics I now know who you are and what you drive. Concider yourself warned..

The city ordinances reference state laws concerning registration, but you also have state statutes that allow for and off road or salvage title that would exempt you from paying taxes and registration fee's.  See section 8-198 of the state statutes.
It doesn't matter anyway, I am unemployed and don't have the money to fight so I have given away two vehicles that had income potential for me.  The kid I gave them to is going to rebuild them and collect the profit, something I might have been able to make if the city would but out.  These cars were hidden from sight and could not be seen from the street, the kid that picked them up drove three times around the block before he could find them.
The city or the county or the feds have no right to double down on taxes.

Don't threaten me, for God sake you call yourself peanut! (Indian Name=Little Balls) The only reason for the pictures is I want the city to leave us the hell alone.  If they are gonna pick on you I want them to hit me also and all of the untouchables around town, like the county yard, the city and Harrods.
For Gods sake man, if you still want to threaten, bring it.  I have never been one to count on the laws protection, I find .45 a litlle closer than 911.

I don't know how they do it here, but if its for parts, its no longer a vehicle.  Secondly, a nice trick to stop that crap, and no one can do anything about it is, park it, put a fence around it, any kind of fence would do, chicken wire will work too, and put up a sign dedicating it to a deceased pet. ONce that is done, it is considered a memorial.
