And who is liable if you get hurt doing this? I don't let people on my property for liability reasons, perhaps the city council feels the same way.

It is apparent they don't want you there, so in the absence of city council permission you should stay away.

My neighbor has some old cars locked away. I would really be helping him if I took them....

Wow, Mariska is clever!!!

We have publicly funded health care - a bit like Britian, but without the troubles ;) Plus I've done a two day chainsaw use and safety course. So liability isn't an issue. We aren't really into suing in this country unless someone has been very negligent. But yes, this is one of the reasons they don't want people such as me doing this.

It's in my nature to use rules as guidelines so something as minor as this is fair game in my book :)
