Folks,
You have allowed the owners
this dark car that moved into our
neighborhood at the corner green house, at
the beginning of June, to abandon their dark
car next to Sundance Park to a ridiculous
level of incompetence.
It seems to us, in our
neighborhood, that our City of Louisville
Police Department is playing a stand off
game, between my reporting abandoned
vehicles next to our City Parks, and City
Code not removing them to keep our City, not
only up to Code, but to keep our City for
future generations.
Allowing new neighbors to
abandon their vehicles, because you are
bullying our neighborhood with public
corruption of favoritism, is very much
against the Ethics Code that City employees
are to uphold, if they want to keep their
jobs.
The dark car has been
abandoned next to Sundance Park, since
August 13...17 days in a row.
You are almost breaking the record of you
allowing the Mr. Rooter commercial vehicle
to stay abandoned for over 20 days. http://www.beaufait.com/darkcar.html
Check it out. It shows the proof of
this vehicle being abandoned for a very,
very, very long time.
Here are 7 pictures of the
abandoned dark car next to Sundance Park for
just the past 7 days in a row.
Good work!!!!
I took these pics from some
neighbors who live about 1/2 block down
inside Sundance Park, where they constantly
see this vehicle allowed to be illegally
abandoned. Neighbors pay taxes to see
a park, not cars abandoned next to our City
Parks.
I also took pics of the
intersection of Sumac and W. Elm St., where
there are 3 neighbors who look at this
illegally abandoned dark car daily.
I took pics showing
their car abandoned next to Sundance Park
with no cars in their driveway at all.
What's up with that?
You need to know that I am
not the only person, who notices our park
being degraded by City Council and the
Police Department.
If City Council wants to
correct this situation, then City laws need
to state specifically just how long Code
Enforcement is allowed to let new neighbors
break our City Residential Parking laws
anywhere in our City, by letting them park
forever and a day next to our lovely parks,
thereby degrading them to a parking lot
status.
But Code Enforcement, run by
our Police Department, would rather bully
our neighborhood and run it down, to spite
the reports showing proofs of illegal
activities allowed to continue for months on
end. Public Corruption...and City
Council is bullied into letting the Police
Department have its own way. So very
shameful for sure.
I will continue to report
the wrong doings of those in charge of our
once lovely City that used to be mentioned
in "Money Magazine". Those were the
days.
Sincerely,
Bev Beaufait

Chapter
17.20 OFF-STREET
PARKING AND LOADING [1]
Sec.
17.20.160. Motor
vehicle parking limitations.
B. On
residential lots, no more than two
motor vehicles may be parked on
any area of the lot other than
within a fully enclosed structure
or on the paved driveway which is
intended for parking or access to
the garage or carport. A motor
vehicle which is parked or stored
on an improved surface adjacent to
a paved driveway, or in a rear
yard, a side yard, or a side yard
adjacent to the street shall be
counted towards the limit of two
such vehicles. No more than one
such motor vehicle may be an
inoperable vehicle as defined in
section 8.16.040.D.1 of this Code.
Sec.
17.20.100. - Parking spaces not to be
used for storage or advertising. Required parking spaces
shall be available for the parking of
operable passenger automobiles of
residents, customers, patrons, and
employees only, and shall not be used
for the storage of vehicles or materials
or for the parking of
trucks used in conducting the business
or use, or for the purpose of
advertising.(Code 1977, §
17.20.100; Ord. No. 715-1981, §
15)
This is
from our Ethics Code
"Open Government & Ethics Pamphlet
2013
Other Ethics Rules of Interest
Page 7
It also
prohibits acts of advantage or favoritism
and, in that regard, prohibits special
considerations, use of employee time for
personal or private
reasons,
and use of City vehicles or equipment,
except in same manner as available to any
other person (or in manner that will
substantially benefit City)."
"Last
night we heard from the
owners of the
truck. It belongs
to a couple who recently
moved to Louisville and
who just purchased the
vehicle. The
husband and wife are a
little distressed about
why the selective
enforcement against
them. Commander
Kingston will speak with
them and convey our
assurances that this is
all quite routine and
innocent. "
This quote is
from a May 25, 2012 e-mail
to me from Bruce Goodman,
Police Chief. He knows
the rules. He applies
them when he wants. He
is a bully. He does
not do his job that he is
paid to do. He should
be fired on the spot.
If he did his job correctly,
the first time he contacted
the owners, he would not
be backed into a
corner to save face.
Now, he will not do his job,
just to try to prove he is
correct, when he is so very
wrong.
