Code
Enforcement,
This is out of
control. Please take action against
these renters.
Code Enforcement harassed
one of the property owners at 387 W.
Elm Street last week about having
debris outside of a dumpster, while spending
$$$ on home improvements. I told her
to complain to City Council.
She told me that nobody ever returns her
calls.
I know all about that.
Code Enforcement can stop
and enforce the City Code Laws on the books,
when they want.
Why doesn't City Code leave
notices for home owners on W. Elm St. about
their grass being over 12 inches tall and
against City Code? Lazy, that is why.
Code Enforcement harasses
home owners.
Code Enforcement does not
make renters follow our City Codes.
This is backwards.
This is upside down.
When are you going to tell
these renters the truth about our parking
laws with regard to construction dumpsters
not being allowed to be illegally parked in
a residential neighborhood???
I realize, again, that this
is job security for you, but it ruins our
neighborhood.
But, what do you care?
You don't.
We in the neighborhood think
$$$$ is exchanging hands for allowing
illegal parking in our neighborhood by
renters.
It is up to Code Enforcement
to prove to us otherwise, by a change of
action with Code Enforcement.
 
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

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.
