In NY a Farm Tractor is not a motor vehicle, doesn't need an inspection, and can be driven on public roads so long as it has a slow moving triangle on the back - no insurance or drivers license required. At least that is what I was told by NY dept of motor vehicles. I also asked the definition and was given a tractor engaged in agricultural activities. If this is true I'll bet your village code talks about motor vehicles parked in your yard or on the street. I'll bet the no parking ordances are written specifing motor vehicles. If true they probably cant do anything to you. BUT BUT !!! if your village is like mine their changing the laws from what's prohibited to what's allowed. In that case they got you. Do your homework and see what the law in your area says. If you put on a plow, turn over 2ft of land and plant a tomato plant or two you might be exempt from all their crap. Look at the white elephant laws you might have some protections. If your only mowing the lawn and pulling a wagon in paraides in NY you might need to register your tractor with SPEC-COM plates and go through all the notmal motor vehicle stuff. good luck
