(there is something about the law there that if you leave the tires on the vehicles you don't have to get permits to build). the wood shed is included in any building census, without question. i stayed at a friend’s compound in new zealand that was a collection of eight or ten street trolleys, campers and trailers, all parked and converted into little rooms dispersed around the property.
