Its not the danger so much as it lowers the tone just a tad.

Its basically a zoning thing. There is some stuff
you arent allowed to do in residential areas.
> P.s always amazed at how different councils work
Yeah, plenty dont care too much what happens with that
stuff in the dregs residential areas and only do something
about it if they get a complaint in the posher areas etc.
And there's always a few jumped up little hitlers 'working' for
councils that get stroppy just to feed their pathetic little egos.

The cops have a real job - council inspectors, parking officers and the like
couldn't make the grade and so don't have real jobs!

Like running a business, perhaps?
If so, I wish that the council here would enforce such zoning laws.
Bloke down the road ran a car security alarm/mobile phone business from
his home. Another has a glass and glazing business. Another sells
blinds, with an advert in his lounge room window.
As for log trucks being parked in the street.....

** Perfectly legal - its called a "home occupation". The right to work
from one's home is a basic right - dates back to the days of "cottage
industries". Doctors, lawyers, accountants, music teachers etc are
common home occupations.
There are rules which include that all persons engaged in the business
must reside on the premises. It is not enough to own the premises - you
must actually live in it .

Not necessarily even just running a business. Lots of the
detail is controlled by council bylaws etc, like how many
horses etc you are welcome to have in your backyard etc.

Quite a few of the smaller businesses are allowed
in residential areas in quite a few council areas.
> As for log trucks being parked in the street.....
Thats mostly state law.

Interesting. I guess in theory only the music teachers of those
listed could potentially be accused of noise nuisance -- disregarding
the cries of agony, frustration, and pain associated with the first
three respectively.

That is, avoid USENET and "get a life"? ;-)

The interesting aspect of that is the question of whether they took
the job because they are like that; or whether they are like that
because they took the job.

I heard that truck drivers are afraid that the local louts will spray-paint
the sides of the trucks with the usual nonsensical drivel.
