When a citizen is told to document the code violations of a trucking company, the owner calls this harassment. The Owner did run out of Time even after spliting up their presentation between two people, son and father. There was one more thing..... time for summary....
When citizens have been making these complaints to the city council for countless meetings this is called by some being a nuisance.. EVENTUALLY the Citizen had presented sufficient materials and threatened a legal action due to non action by the city that action was taken, and a Council Member Directed action of a REVIEW. GEE what it takes to move a mountain called City Management.
THE City Manager and City Management fails for MONTHS to enforce the terms of the Conditional Use Permits, this is called professional...?? HE got a raise and better terms in the event of termination... Perhaps this is the meaning the Council uses for the word Professional.
When the business owner is caught laughing, and making mocking faces as the neighbors respond to his claims of harassment, its called Priceless.
Apparently, the City has found that the operations had been expanded outside the Conditional Use Permit, and the hours of Operation and thus a problem in fact a reality, not fiction... Not a joke.
Also not a joke is that it took so long to get action out of the city. Also not a joke is the attitude of the City Manager toward the citizens of this area of town, and their concerns.
YES ALL BUSINESSES SHOULD HAVE BUSINESS LICENSES... HOME BUSINESS INCLUDING ALL DAY CARE, SENIOR CARE HOMES, AND EBAY SALES PEOPLE... ALL PEOPLE WORKING IN GRAND TERRACE SHOULD BE COVERED BY A BUSINESS LICENSE IN GRAND TERRACE.
THIS INCLUDES Contractors, Gardner, Caretakers, Tree Cutters, EVERYONE... EVEN PEOPLE SELLING POLITICAL T SHIRTS from home for example.
