 It's up to the landowner (municipality, homeowner, business owner) whether the tax/transaction contract includes "vehicle storage in designated areas"

Paying taxes doesn't automatically give a blank check right to everything the government owns; it's (ostensibly 🤣) a social contract with terms that both sides understand, agree, and adhere to. 
 When considering the reality of things, I agree. In my hopeful middle-ground utopia, taxes would be the only source of income a government has, and anything that falls outside of that budget wouldn't be paid for by the public sector.
