Just one more thing to blight the neighborhood
Not only is it blighted property we have to deal with here in lake Worth that breeds crime, but junked cars parked on our city streets. We seem to be a dumping ground for just about everything.
Abandoned property, public,
means all tangible personal property which does not have an
identifiable owner and which has been disposed on public property
in a wrecked, inoperative, or partially dismantled
condition or which has no apparent intrinsic value to the rightful
owner. It's subjective. This car does have a tag.
Abandoned/inoperable vehicle
is any vehicle which is located on public property, or private property
and not within an enclosed building, and which has
any of its wheels or tires dismantled or deflated, is
missing any part or valid registration required by law for travel on
public streets, or is in such condition as to render it
incapable of normal operation under its own power, including being
supported above existing grade level by such means as
concrete blocks, jacks, hoists, or similar devices. Included in this
definition is any wrecked, inoperative or partially
dismantled motor vehicle.
The story is that the owner abandoned the vehicle and walked away some three weeks ago and the car has been in the exact same position ever since.
Why doesn't the PBSO or someone in charge at city hall call Motor Vehicles, find out who the owner is, if this Toyota is registered to him and ask him about this car.

You last question would require a few minutes of someone actually doing something productive.
I thought it odd the day I saw a tow truck dropping that car off there that day and a lady directing them to put it there. The building in front of the car is also tagged with a red code enforcement tag, but I agree, the PBSO should not allow that damaged car to be allowed on the street in that condition. The blight and oddness of people doing stuff like this all is beyond my comprehension.
