Well, Hiawatha Drive is giving us the same problem as that old garden hose. We’ve been watching the two junk trucks up at the 1000 block and noticed some improvement in that situation.
But for the last two days this one has been parked in front of a house on the 700 block.

What is it with Hiawatha and junk trucks? Hiawatha is such a nice street and it gets lots of traffic between Congdon and Summit. So why the “garden hose” effect where you fix one problem and a new one develops down the street? What’s the attraction?
Trucks like that (if they are even road-worthy) should be parked at your place of business, not on a residential street. Surely you have a yard in an industrial area where your office and garage are located.
Or maybe you don’t…which begs the question of taxes and business licenses and OSHA and labor laws and insurance and…. Business regulations are all part of the American Dream.
Hmm, nice thought. I'm from the UK, where any vehicle that is tested as roadworthy and shows current tax is allowed to park on any unrestricted street. Is that not the same in America? I don't think you can discriminate against the vehicles parked on your road based purely on your own aesthetic judgement of what you would like to see parked on your street. If they are illegal they should be moved. If you don't like the look of them, you should move, offer to buy the owner a more attractive vehicle, or just get over yourself.
