'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 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?

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.

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.

. . . 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.

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.

Is this part of the gay agenda ? If you have spent any time in Califa you will find sodomites are militantly tidy .
