I received a complaint about storage in a building's garages. The garages are under the apartments and besides residents parking there cars inside they have storage of what looks like there whole house up against the wall also. One was 12 feet high and 8 ft deep. Does anyone know the exact code I can look up NYS
 
a man's home is his hoard

unless NY says otherwise, not a violation, besides there may be twenty gallons plus of gasoline in there already

are you going to get a warrant to search each garage??
