    Maybe the Council can provide carts or sponsor ride-share as they're only trying to feed their family. Can't wait for the PL!

    The thieves’ possessory rights are superior to those of the car owners on account of their status as “marginalized persons”: MoCo Council.

      Hence the expression: "Possession is nine-tenths of the law."

    Why do so few single family homes in the area have attached or detached garages for secure storage? Back in the Midwest, very few houses did not have a two car garage. One of the perks of living in an apartment building is parking is a secure underground gararge, instead of parking on the street like an animal😎

      Ah but there are those who work for the council that think that secure parking for apartments is unnecessary and can be found at unsecured county lots just "66ft away".

      Seriously! Where I grew up almost no one parked on the street. Maybe the weather was worse, but the culture was to pay to protect your car in your own garage. Around here even million dollar homes often don’t have any garages.

      @5:40 AM Because the homes here are so old that most people did not have cars when they were constructed. The Mc Mansions that replace the teardowns have garages, but usually very little left as front or back yards.

      "those who work for the council" That's contradiction in terms!

    Contact council member Friedson. He should know of the crime in his jurisdiction. Good luck
