Used to have one actually. Another ordinance says you can't "store" anything out in the open. I used to keep a couple of extension ladders and an old Lincoln Dial-Arc welder (covered) out on my back deck. The welder was huge and took up too much space in my basement. The city came along and told me everything has to be stored in an enclosed building so it isn't visible. Someone might think the neighborhood is cluttered looking.....

So now I have several storage sheds cluttering up my back yard. 

We have to put up privacy fencing around our outside central A/C units too. So instead of people seeing a bunch of A/C units next to houses, they get to look at random 5 ft. square wooden pens.
