Code enforcement IS illegal, is does not comply with the 5th amendment
Code enforcement is theft of your property and turning you into a slave in the process.
If you want to live in a community or development with “code enforcement” move to an HOA where you agree to the rules BEFORE you buy the house or whatever and you get a copy of the rules when you purchase, don’t like the rules, don’t buy in the community.
Towns were not suppose to have code enforcement, it fact, I can argue that it is illegal under the 5th amendment due to the fact that the property rights are being taken, and the home/land owner is becoming a slave to the state/local government. Its a rights issue.
I never received a 2,500 page code enforcement rule book when I bought my house, nor did I sign a piece of paper stating I agree with them at closing. BTW, they can change at any time and be selectively enforced.
MUI it is based on the 10A. The States can manage their jurisdiction any way they want, including deference to cities and counties.
Just MU — YMMV.
