Any suggestions/recommendations welcome on how to obtain 'curb strip' permission. Is it the easiest/best way to obtain an okay to search a home owner's yard? TIA and HH!
Thanks. Navy...submariner by chance???The area between the sidewalk and the street are street right of ways. Since most cities require the homeowner to mow them some think that the property belongs to them. If confronted just move on down the street.

Served on five different submarines as part of the crew. Went to sea on a bunch of them for a week or so. Was tad on one for a 76 day northern run.
Two years on an old LSD out of San Diego showed me that the guy on the boat were fed better, paid better and treated better.
I did 20 and retired as I had two young sons at home who needed their old man home more than 1/3 of the time.
Your comments are why I started the thread. As a homeowner myself, I always thought of the curb strip as mine...not theirs, OR the cities. Otherwise...they can come and mow it.In many towns/cities the property owner is required to mow the grass in the strip and maintain the integrity of the sidewalk as well. I know this is the case in Baltimore City where my grandparents lived for near fifty years. So as such I'm sure most owners view themselves as "tenants in entirety" with respect to that strip of land and feel they have exclusive use of it even though as noted it's not owned by them. Not ready to try this detecting yet. Too many chances of getting on the bad side of too many owners.
