That's a whole other story. Otter Tail County MN about 4 or 5 years ago.
Otter Tail county is in the "Heart Of The Lakes" area of MN. The county has the highest concentration of lake in MN and subsequently many summer lake shore home. That is not cabins, it's homes, many in the 150K plus construction cost range. Now these are summer homes for the rich and shamless from the cities.
Driving into Lake Lida on MN Hwy 108 is a farm that had many old threshing machines, one setting on almost every hill top in the pasture. The farm stead itself was over grown with weeds and had more broken, not running equipment and tractors setting around than running stuff.
Enter the Lake Lida Lake shore association. They tried (and almost won) to get a county ordnance passed that would require all farm machinery to be stored indoors, all hay stored indoors and several other anti farm make the city people feel good things. At first the county fathers had "meetings" that were not well advertised in remote areas. Most of the counsel was retiring and not running for reelection. Several well to do farmers retained lawyers then inform the counsel that if they did pass something like that the county would be tied up in court for years. No they didn't threaten to fight the law but instead to make it fair. Things like no lawn mowers, 4 wheelers, boats, bicycles, garden tools or even docks removed from the lake in the winter could be stored outside were what they were going to go after. So the measure failed and the newly elected officials several months later passed a thing saying that they could never pass something like because of the counties roots in AG. The Lake Lida folks didn't give up, they tried to get something like that passed for the entire state! That measure didn't make it out of committee. MN is a right to farm state!
