lol there's always anonymous whistle blowers. One hounded us for not having grass while the house was under construction
another time, we were making a house for ourselves to live us, and we (as the owners) went to the house with shovels to level the ground for the grass on a sunday ... someone called the cops for a noise complain

how do you call a noise complain on 3 guys with shovels at 1pm on a sunday? Some people just love being dicks.
Back on topic, the way most vancouver special houses are made are upper floor is washroom/living room/kitchen/dining room/ bed rooms and two basement suites on the bottom (one smaller 1 bedroom/bath/kitchen and one larger 2 bedroom/bath/kitchen). Without this setup most people cannot afford the vancouver house they live in, renters pay off the mortgage and most people don't register their suites.
