id rather refer to it as a goldmine. its where poor people get tires and engines, transmissions, pipe, plate steel, etc. our jobs have gone overseas, how can it be a crime or in bad taste to try to make a living from our own local properties? i generally appreciate the services the government provides but they can sure cross the line between helpful and destructive awful easily. the worth of your mcmansions imploded. put the blame where it belongs. on your own skewed values..

"Tejera said after cleaning up the property, he continued to sell small auto parts out of the building. Tejera said he sold cars and trucks off the lot. �I kept the business going so I would not lose my non-conforming use,� he said."

This is all pretty weak on the owner's part. Less than $600 sales a year is not operating a business. How do you sell cars and trucks and get not more than $600? And not collecting and paying sales tax? I doubt the Department of Revenue will take kindly to that.
