No, not so. A city can legally prohibit anything it wants. Search
warrant issues might make it hard for them to PROVE what you're doing,
but they can certainly prohibit it. Even if they don't have probable
cause to get a warrant to look in your garage and see what you're
doing, they could still cite you, and then at court you are asked "Are
you building a plane in your garage?"

If you answer "Yes" you get fined and if you answer "No" you are
risking a perjury charge. (In a criminal case, of course, you could
decline to answer - but code infraction cites are considered civil, and
you have no protection against self-incrimination)
