A freind here in MD planted some flowers and a few small shrubs in an area of his yard that is considered off limits by the county. They actually took aerial photo’s and threatened a fine

Guess my idea to start a non government pot farm is off the table.

Judas Priest - Electric Eye

Up here in space
I’m looking down on you.
My lasers trace
Everything you do.

You think you’ve private lives
Think nothing of the kind.
There is no true escape
I’m watching all the time.

I’m made of metal
My circuits gleam.
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean.

I’m elected electric spy
I protected electric eye.
Always in focus
You can’t feel my stare.
I zoom into you
You don’t know I’m there.

I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove.
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
There’s nothing you can do about it.
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows.
Protected. Detective. Electric eye.

Make building permits as easy to get as welfare; problem solved.

I’d buy me the biggest damn pool cover I could find and set it up in my backyard, wait for the “fine” then sue the everliving piss out of them!

This BS has got to stop!!!

Our .gov is out of control and needs to be put back in its place, if that means dissolving the whole thing and starting over then so be it.

What better form of revenue generation for a city or county to require permits for various things on a person’s PRIVATE PROPERTY.

I’m sure they got the proper warrants for the blanket city wide search too (/sarc)

I do believe this is illegal. While my building inspector has “police powers”, I believe he needs cause...just like a policeman. It usually comes in the form of a complaint.

Problem is.....Google Earth views are NOT real time and in some cases years behind!

This is a simple problem to solve in small areas. Vote the bastards out of office. City Council or Board of Supervisors, whoever thought they were entitled to every cent you have.

I guarantee that every candidate who promises to repeal this "great idea" will prevail.

(...and the planner who suggested it out on his butt...)

Revenue tickets against the citizenry.

Note they don’t use such measures to discover where numerous illegal immigrant families are shacked up together despite deed restrictions, etc.
