'The proposal basically sets standards for upkeep and appearance and gives town officials the right to enter homes. If the owner refuses to allow the official to enter, the town can go to a judge for an "administrative search warrant" to allow access to the interior of buildings. Violations would cost up to $250 a day.'
Lol.
It would be real funny if they tried to enter the Hater Castle or any part of my Kingdom.
I can only dream.

Marino, who drafted the ordinance at the urging of the mayor and council, defended himself, saying he felt the audience was trying to shoot the scribe and that he was only doing his job. The always popular Nuremberg Defense.

the town can go to a judge for an "administrative search warrant" to allow access to the interior of buildings. Sounds like interior decorators now want their OWN army of bedroom police. Where is the ACLU now? Where is the homosexual lobby? Where are the people who oppose wiretaps?

These “leaders” need to be run out of town on a rail.

Whatever happened to Roberts Rules of Order for city council meetings? A “workshop” sounds decidedly un-promising. Trust me. Too, citizens should be suspicious of parallel yet unaccountable incursions to their wallet and freedoms. Taxpayers deserve to have their monies that go for all those entities do their job, rather than yet another layer of beauracratic nonsense.

They ARE the ACLU homosexual lobby.

RIGHT HERE!
In this little dung heap of a town do you think this was the first indication of liberal fascism? There have to have been other signs the council and leadership was out of control. The part that it would have passed easily if it wasn't an election year makes you wonder how out of whack their minds are to begin with about the role of government.
Frankly they should be inspected daily in such a gulag.

I’m not a violent guy by any means but if any government official ever entered my house to check on my dusting habits he had better have kissed his wife and kids goodbye before arriving at my door.
To: BGHater
. . . it is unclear how officials who may want to be re-elected will react to a large crowd of dissatisfied residents.That's immaterial. Unless those people have been neutered, they'd better throw out everyone who is up for election and maybe do a recall on the survivors. This sounds like HOA wannabees trying out their wings.

Still others said town attorney Paul Marino was overstepping his bounds. Marino, who drafted the ordinance at the urging of the mayor and council, defended himself, saying he felt the audience was trying to shoot the scribe and that he was only doing his job.
Marino's job is to listen to his clients and their request and then advise them based upon legal knowledge and research.
Apparently Constitutional Law isn't his strong suit. Check out the 4th Amendment sometime, Marino.

"Let's see if you all show up for a workshop," Marino commented, adding he would go through the document paragraph by paragraph if that's what the council wished. And Carrier said, "If you are not here, you have nothing else to say."
I would bet good money that this "workshop" is where they get to use the Delphi Technique to "convince" the masses to support their Nazi rules. (Yes, the Delphi Technique is related to Alinsky).

Tampa, across the Bay, has a lot of this mentality too, except when it comes to many of the minority areas where anything goes or is ignored for some unknown reason.

Where is the ACLU now? Where is the homosexual lobby? Where are the people who oppose wiretaps? It sounds like they had a pretty good crowd.

We had a fancy schmancy urban retiree show up at the Board of Supervisors in our frontier county and ask for an ordinance to prevent people from storing firewood outside with tarps over them. He didn’t like the view of his neighbor’s wood pile from his home.
I told him that we have people living under tarps in some areas of the county and he needs to adjust to some new realities.
