San Francisco Liberals Outlaw Storing Items in Your Own Garage

[OODA_Loop]

You folks are fucking unbelievable. In a hotel, there are no assigned parking spaces. If some tenant in the motel fill up a couple parking spaces with their junk, you guys like that idea eh.

Exactly we need government to govern junk in parking space on the hotel's private property.

 

[ScienceRocks]

I'll keep storing stuff in my garage.

Block a fire lane, keep another guest from having a place to park. And you all think that great.

Or how about those apartments. Usually enough parking for the tenants and a few extras spaces. Of course you all are all for the idea that you can just store your shit in this unsecured parking area and its all gonna be there when you come for it.

Every city has a building code. And a fire code. And in many cities parking is at a premium.
The code is helping to keep standards that have been accepted in the community.

Maybe a building has parking spaces exposed to a street view. Maybe the community don't want those space filled up with a bunch of boxes, bags or whatever, for the world to drive by and look at.

You want a space to put your junk in? Buy a house with a big garage and load it up. Rent a storage locker. Whatever.

But fucking get a grip on just what it is you think is happening there (San Fran).

you idiot, did you read the link?

they are talking about PRIVATE garages

The code was written (in 1989), to be applied to common garage space, whether public or private. There's no question that the law is worded slightly weirdly, but it's pretty asinine to think that the law is aimed at private garage units.

I live in an apartment building in San Francisco. There is one common garage in my building, which tenants have the option of renting spaces in, as well as individual garages on the side of the building. All of those individual garages are used for storage by the people who rent them, no one has ever been hassled about it.

Needs more law.

Needs more law.

Your outrage is 25 years too late.

Outrage at over-legislation on non-issues is timeless.

No, I think "pointless" is a better word.

I've never understood the need to be outraged.

Why the hell would anyone live in that fucked up state?

Yes. Good sheep.

No law is too much.

It does not matter.

I already pointed above that many codes are similar and widely ignored.

I am just amused at how many will fall over the mortar in their defense of The Government even if that makes absolutely no sense and is not matching the OP criteria of the discussion.

This isn't a new law, and it's not enforced.

It's "illegal" to jaywalk in NYC, too.

WTF is wrong with you people other that you can't fucking read and comprehend.

How many time should the reg have to say "apartment building and hotels" for you assholes to realize they are talking about apartment building and hotels.

Help me jesus.

When you all find the part where they SPECIFICALLY mention single family residences or even condominiums, let me know. The above was from the OPs link.

1. Hysterically and reflexively express "outrage" over nothing.

2. Wait for liberals to point out how ludicrous the fake outrage is.

3. Claim that they are "defending the government".

lying about things doesn't help you

Truth, I don't even know if they are lying. They fucking just can't read and comprehend what they read.

It's private property,

No need for more law or bigger government.

Private property can self-govern their guests and tenants.

Hey vox you asshole. You get someone to read it to you and explain it yet?

You can have a "private" parking spot in an apartment building. You are stupid vox.

Yea, you probably think it ok to block fire lanes in apartment buildings.

You don't even know if apartment building owners and hotel owners may have asked for this type of reg. Just to keep the mess in public areas under control.

You ever have to deal with tenants?

Like I said, building codes and fire codes go hand in hand. There are a lot of reasons to look at this from the cities and building owners POV.

Lets say you live in a build with no assigned parking. Four unit building, four spaces, Three of your "neighbors" fill up all four parking spaces with "stuff" they want to store. You park on the street. Car gets vandalized. All so people could store their junk in a space you should have been able to park.

You good with that to?

Blocking a fire lane is already against the law ?

How is a parking space in the way of the fire lane ?

All handled in the lease.
