The township has ordinances on the books in regards to keeping your property looking presentable for a reason. One house looks like trash and soon they all do, if the township does not enforce these laws. Thankfully the township does a great job of policing and enforcement, so everyone can reap the benefits. If you want to have an unkempt property, maybe you should move where there are no houses or laws. People who work every day, like to come home to a nice neighborhood.
