So he owns it. It's his land and the next person that comes around can do what they want with it. If that's remove or maintain the container that's up to them.
It's not up to the government to decide what buildings should be allowed based on their looks. If they want to claim it's a fire hazard, then yes. But they'll be hard pressed to do that. If they want to claim it's a public safety hazard they can do that. But they'll be hard pressed to do that: it's private property.
Seems like they are pulling the common government card of pulling a law out that hasn't been used in a while to make someone comply with some unreasonable demands.
- threeseed 10y agoYou don't own a house do you ? None of what you said is true in most countries including the US. The government has and will continue to regulate what you do on your own property so much as it affects other members of the community. And yes putting an unsecured shipping container on top of what looks like a hill is a stupid and criminally negligent thing to do.
- swang 10y ago> It's not up to the government to decide what buildings should be allowed based on their looks. That is exactly what governments decide. Private property does not mean, "do whatever you want" it merely gives you certain rights that the government enforces. They also enforce certain standards for the properties they sell to you.
- karma_vaccum123 10y agoLook for the word "owner" on your deed. Find it? Nope. What you will find is usually "tenant". That's intentional. I don't even know how this thread got this far. You have rights on property, those are expressed in your deed. Those rights are granted to you. That isn't ownership, and the lack of the term "owner" on your deed is by design.
