Sacramento County ban on home “major auto repair”

I bought my first house back in the late '80s in Midtown Sac. I was in the body & paint business at the time and would do quite a bit of side work in my driveway in front of my tiny one model T size garage. I built a small fence in front so nobody could see what was going on cept my single teacher neighbor. I tried to do most of it when she wasn't around. Everyone got along. Nobody had to see my business, but painting cars outside a booth in California?! HAH not anymore. Economy and standard of living can be hard on folks especially there. That's why I moved to the midwest 20 years ago. More freedom, less restriction, far lower cost of living. I guess my point is, you can do that stuff reasonably and neighborly without trashing the neighborhood. Sadly, there are those that have no scruples or cares about anyone else.
