Code
Enforcement, Police Chief, City
Council:
The owner of
the commercial truck and commercial dumpster
are running a commercial "Handyman" business
out of the rental house on the corner of W.
Elm Street and Sycamore Ct.
A neighbor lady at the end
of Sycamamore Ct. told me yesterday.
So, I have been keeping a close eye on the
situation.
I got 3 pics this
morning. I had to get to work early
this morning on this case for proofs with my
enclosed pics.
This is how I got you to FINALLY
move the Mr. Rooter commercial vehicles,
after 1 year of allowing them to run their
business out of their rental house on
Sycamore Court.
Now, we in the neighborhood
know for sure why Code Enforcement turns a
blind eye to these renters' commercial
trucks, trailers, etc., in our
neighborhood. They are $$$$$.
I saw Code Enforcement drive
by 2 days ago.
I saw an officer at the
corner of W. Elm St. and Sycamore Court last
night, when I took the pic that I sent
you. This officer was in Sundance Park
walking his elderly doggy. He saw the
illegal commercial dumpster now parked in
the rental driveway, like I proved in last
night's pic. He also saw the tan SUV
with TX plates illegally parked back next to
Sundance Park. He had to walk right by
it to arrive at the corner of W. Elm Street
and Sycamore Court.
I see lots of "physical
activity" by Code Enforcement and our Police
Department, so it looks like they are doing
something.
So, Code Enforcement and our
local Police Department see exactly what is
going on.
They are allowing commercial
businesses out of their rental homes.
First, Mr. Rooter. Now it's the
"Handyman" business.
That makes 2 separate
businesses that Code Enforcement has allowed
to conduct illegal business in our
neighborhood.
That is totally illegal in
this neighborhood. And further proof
of Code Enforcement taking $$$$$.
Hooking up his trailer for
the daily work. The green truck at the
corner is the "Handyman" commercial truck.
Workman's truck loading up
for the day's work at the corner
house. Illegal to have a commercial
business in a residential neighborhood.
"Handyman" truck loading up
for the day at the house on the corner of W.
Elm St. and Sycamore Court.
They saw me take pics.
They drove back and forth in front of my
house honking their horn at 7 in the
morning. Whatever. See the kind
of trouble you cause in our
neighborhood. Disgusting.
Code Enforcement constantly
lies to the folks that they have to deal
with.
That means that the Police
Chief and the head of Code Enforcement are
liars and encourage their employees to lie.
That means that the Police
Chief and the head of Code Enforcement are
chronic liars, which means they have no
morals at all.
This is so corrupt that it
makes my head spin and makes me utterly sick
to my stomach.
This is an oversized vehicle
that you have allowed to destroy our
neighborhood.
They moved the oversized
commercial dumpster early this
morning. It had not better be back or
their commercial business truck.
Here is my URL address
showing months of illegal activity
by City Council, which allows Code
Enforcement to allow illegal storing/parking
for this dumpster in our neighborhood for
months on end. You should be so very,
very proud of yourselves.

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.
