Okay, just to wrap up....
First thanks to everyone for info and advice.
Second, daveinet nailed it! I checked on zoning laws and guess what? Yep, I've been in violation for the past 20 years. Dang hate when that happens.
If I moved it over 1 foot boyfriend would still be aggravated and may also research laws and able to make me move anyway. Soooo, I'm going to build new pad next to rental house. It's close and I can also put in some electric. It will set at back of house and renters thought it was a great idea as I said I'd forego the $50 rent increase that was coming.
Not a catastrophe just a few extra dollars for small tree removal, asphalt and electric. Will still be very handy as only about a mile away.
Now the good news. I also found out that you can't park within 5ft of property line unless in an approved driveway. This area is not a driveway. So, no boat for boyfriend and good chance I can make him park truck out in the street. Oh yes, speaking of street. Code says cars on public street must be moved every day (!). You can't just park it and leave it. Might be an issue for boyfriend as he has old beat-up Camero thats been parked out front for weeks. I guess what comes around does indeed go around.
Thanks again to all that replied.
