I GOT A TICKET/NOTICE for my car thats in the driveway.

In the mid 90's the city I live in passed a beautificaton ordinance junk cars, uncut grass, building materials, etc. I took my Duster out of storage in 2000 an never had a problem till one of my neighbors ask how much I wanted for it for Mrs. So an So to which I replied tell her she doesn't have enough money to buy it. Two weeks later the local Chief of police puts a ticket on the car on my property. I called him and he came out to the house and I went ballistic on him. Three of the adjoining properties to me never cut the grass behind their houses and the grass around the house across the street hasn't been cut since 1994. He replied we don't know how to get hold of them, the owners live out of state. I pointed to the for sale sign hanging from the porch with the telephone number in 8 inch letters and he said get plates on it and we wont bother you anymore! Ain't seen em since!

I got a notice once that said my grass/weeds were too tall and my car had to be parked on concrete or asphlat. Only one of the tires was halfway on the dirt. I called the Enforcement Officer to come out and show me what he was talking about, just so I could point a few things out to him face to face. When he came I asked him about the four other houses around me with taller grass and weeds, and the other homes that had cars parked completly in the yard that had been there since I moved into the neighborhood years ago. He was pretty cool and said he only investigates complaints and glanced over at the house cross corner of me. I just smiled and said thank you, I'll fix the infractions. The old lady cross corner of me has always given me snobby looks, I guess its cause I"m from Hawaii with long hair. Anyway I got the floor jack and move the front of the car six inches. I also cut the grass and stopped watering it so it turned to dirt and had the big tree removed. Now she can look at the large dirt patch I have in front since there no code against having just dirt. I call it my desert landscaping!
