    Originally, I was bent due to the 4 words that describe me and many other proud people...don't tread on me.
    Then, the other side of me recalled a saying my mother drilled into my head long ago as a child...your rights end where mine begin.
    This is coming from a guy who's lived both sides of this. I was born in a city of 60k+ and the majority of places, due to ordinances voted upon by elected officials that the people elect, that don't allow "eyesores". So, again, I was born city, but my heart is in the country. I no longer live in that city and now reside in a rural setting with hardly any ordinances. This is where not only your privelege, but your right to pick up and move to a place that suits you comes in to play. So, for the OP....if in fact you have a plethora of scrap laying around that could potentially drive the cost of others property value down and it is transcribed into local law, you have 3 choices. 1. Downsize the operation 2. Like many others have mentioned, build a fence, do it in a garage, etc. Out of sight, out of mind or 3. Move to a different location that better fits your lifestyle.
    Good luck!
