My neighbor has a…

By far the most common information request we receive here is related to what are the rules about vehicles (boats, non running cars, trailers) in the neighborhood. The simple answer is Milwood is not a deed restricted neighborhood, and MNA is not a homeowers association, so we don't pass rules about such things.

Therefore your best information about this type of topic is found on the city code ordinance site. The following is the key piece of information:

Storage of Vehicles

There are a number of regulations that concern the storing of vehicles in a residential area.

* There must not be more vehicles stored at a residence than there are licensed drivers. Additional vehicles must be in the garage.
* All vehicles must be functional with the exception of antique vehicles or recreational vehicles. One vehicle under repair for less than 60 days is allowed.
* Residents may keep two antique or recreational vehicles such as a boat or RV screened behind a 6-foot wood or masonry fence.
* Only one commercial vehicle (with a capacity less than one ton) may be stored at a residence.

Report suspected violations to 3-1-1 or send an email. Please report junked or abandoned vehicles to the Austin Police Department.

I'll post the name of our regional police representative soon since I know for some of you 311 has not produced the outcomes you are looking for.
