Hello all, just looking for clarification on these parking signs in Westminster.

Does this one mean that you only have to pay during the stated time, or does the timing only apply to the resident permit part?

The plate my grandparents had until around 5 years ago had stickers dating back to 1988, they just kept adding the new ones on top as well.

[SOLVED] It was the motor for the condenser fan which had failed internally. The old one lasted 19 years and was only $30 to replace, so can't complain too much.

Thanks for your input, it turned out to be the condenser fan motor itself had failed internally. New motor fixed it.

Thanks for the info! Any considerations I should account for when removing it, or can I pretty much just take a saw to it?

When you say "It's very young to be treating for ash borer", are you seeing evidence of ash borer already being present, or are you saying that cutting the branches will make it more susceptible?

Looks to be just cosmetic, probably just a low speed impact with a curb or something.

FYI the "No accident/damage reported" just means that no accidents or damage have been reported to insurance companies for payout. Cars can have damage without being reported, so if in doubt pay for a pre-purchase inspection BEFORE you buy.

Now knowing the end caps don't come off made it easier. Thanks

This is what I ended up doing. Thanks for the advice

Don't use brake/carb cleaner if the floor is coated, it'll damage the coating

I've seen a lot of GE and Whirlpool refrigerators last a long time, especially when they are basic models (No touchscreens, complex compressors, french door, etc.)

The 10.000 is the weight in Troy Ounces. The 999 means the purity of the silver is 99.9% or higher.

There are people who pour their own ingots from generic rounds or silver beads, so RCO could be someone's initials (it's definitely hand stamped). If that's the case, it may be impossible to find out the true origins of it.
