Residential lot to private commercial parking?

Are you sure it was the owner of the land or the driver of the truck parked next to you?

I have a lot that I let people and tree trimmers and road crews park on.
I don’t charge them anything because if I did then I wouldn’t be awesome.

 

Grandpa bought some pretty good sized property back in teh 50's. Got married and built his only house in 52.
She passed away in the late 70's. During the 80's he built a HUGE garage in the back yard. In the late 90's he sold half his property to the widowed neighbor. She turned it in to a storage complex. Half the property got storage units. The other half got boats and motorhomes. Some time in 2000s someone bought 1/4 of his remaining property. Built a HUGE warehouse business.

Everything behind his house is now commercial and residential. And what was left of his house and property. Got demolished and rebuilt for a new family a few years back.

I heard the neighbor also passed away. I don't know what the kids did with the house and land they grew up on. Or the storage she built.

 

What about if I want to park only my tractor without trailer front my house legal or not I have rooms to park without effects the traffic ?

 

Yeah at ten bucks a truck, that doesnt even cover clean up fees.

 

And have some wheel locks handy for the truck drivers who offer you one of their genuine " I'm good for it" IOU's

 

Thats cheap rate

 

I would charge, bunch of pigs in the industry that will trash property and have a sense of entitlement. At least you found parking, I know a few places out west locals park at that are paid parking. Lot owner has a lot trash and damage to repair. Lot is on outskirts of town zoned commercial

 

Because he'd lose the ag exemption on that portion of his land.

 

Thats true. But notice I said marginal or poor farmland. And almost every farmer has some of that. At 15 bucks per truck per night, what he lost in any ag exemptions he would more than make up for. Especially on land that doesnt make the cut any other way.
