I think we were both on the Board when the following supplement was added to the ARC Guidelines:

Section 1100.1 Vehicle Storage.

A. Intent.

To minimize the negative visual impact and loss of property value caused by long term storage of unregistered and/or non-operative vehicles on Ocean Pines lots.

B. Authority.

Paragraph 8(h) No stripped down, partially wrecked, or junk motor vehicle, or sizeable part thereof, shall be permitted to be parked on any street in the Section or Subdivision or on any lot. Paragraph 8(o) No vehicle shall be parked on any street in the Subdivision.

C. Guidelines.

1. All vehicles must be parked on the residence driveway or paved parking area.

2. In the process of evaluating whether a motor vehicle is to be included in the "junk" category, conditions such as, but not limited to, flat tires, missing headlights, broken windows, the absence of current state registration and other on-site conditions, are to be considered.

These are the regulations that the CPI should be using to determine whether action can be taken.  I think you were also involved in the debates about CPI access to properties and looking under covers on vehicles.

In any case, flat tires should be an obvious determination even if the vehicle is covered.
