Folks!!!!!
Still over
40 Days. No change.
When
are you going to stop this
illegal activity that brings
down our assessment
values????? Remember,
according to our "District
Categories" our neighborhood
is number 4 ONLY for residents
living only!!!! Our
neighborhood is not numbers 7
-9 for commercial uses.
The renter's "Handyman" truck
comes very early in the morning so
nobody can see that this renter is
operating an illegal business out of
his renter residential house in a
residential neighborhood.
That is exactly what the Mr.
Rooter business did.
This was happening at 6:50 a.m.
this morning.
The "Handyman" sign is gone off the
worker's truck. But with a
ladder on the top it shows it is a
"work" truck and not a residential
truck. The signs can be seen
in the 9-25 and 9-28 pics, both
sides.
Code Enforcement has informed
this renter about our "advertising"
on commercial vehicles in
residential neighborhoods is
illegal. So the "Handyman"
signs are gone off the vendor truck
with the ladder on top.
Mr. Rooter does the same
thing. They have their white
trucks with no advertising on them
come to the house at the end
of W. Sycamore Court to get
their supplies. This, of
course, has been going on
since 2012.
Somebody in our Code Enforcement
Department obviously told the
illegal vendors how to skirt our
City laws. That is so
very publically corrupt.
Bribes????
The renter leaves for the day
with his commercial vendor truck
and the "Handyman" truck with the
ladder on top. That
makes the "Handyman" truck
a non residential vehicle, as
nobody else in our neighborhood
has a residential truck with
a ladder on top all the time.
Just
because you folks got rid of the
dumpster, does not mean that you
folks got rid of the renter
operating a commercial vendor
business out of a rental
residential house in a
residential neighborhood, which
is totally illegal.
How
many times do you
people have to be reminded of
our City laws for operating
vendor businesses out of
residential neighborhoods?????
With
Code Enforcement allowing
this illegal vendor activity
in our neighborhood, it also
suggests that others in our
neighborhood can run an
illegal commercial vendor
business in a District
Category, which is
specifically for residents
only, per our City Codes.
When
added with the illegal
commercial dumpster being
allowed to be able to be
parked/stored in our
neighborhood, this renter
has been operating an
illegal commercial vendor
business out of our
residential neighborhood for
over 40 days. Enough
is enough!!!!
The
renter's "Handyman" truck
comes very early in the
morning so nobody can see
that this renter is
operating an illegal
business out of his renter
residential house in a
residential
neighborhood. That
is exactly what the Mr.
Rooter business did.
As
City Council and Code
Enforcement allow this
illegal activity in our
neighborhood, our property
assessment values go
down. What a horrible
way to run a City government
that needs $$$ to fix roads
and our golf course after
the September floods.
These people who run our
City are horribly corrupt,
in my humble opinion.
This renter
needs to rent an office in
our commercial "District
Categories" from which to
operate his commercial
vendor business.
Businesses are not allowed
anywhere in our City in
residential neighborhoods.
From our Municode
Sec. 17.12.010. District
categories.
4. Residential
low density R-L. The
residential low density
R-L district is
comprised of typical

single-family

C-N district is
comprised of areas to
accommodate mixed

Commercial
community C-C. The commercial community C-C
is a district comprised
of areas to provide for
a restricted range of

Commercial
business C-B. The commercial business C-B
is a district comprised
of areas to provide for
a full range of retail
sales and services
including opportunities
for a complete variety
of comparative shoppers'
goods.
Our
neighborhood is number
4. ONLY!!!!
Our
neighborhood is not
numbers 7 -9.
City Council allows Code
Enforcement to break our
residential laws for
favoritism. It is also
against our ethics code for
public servants...you folks.
Here
are the pics
from today for
my proofs.
Updates will
come daily until
this is cleared
up.

"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.
