"[VIRGINIA] The City of Lynchburg is trying to give the planning

issue search warrants if they suspect "code" violations."



What's the problem with vigorous code enforcement?? In a lot of places,
the
code specifics a minimum standard that's below what most people like to
see
in their neighborhoods - and besides, if ya don't like the code, don't
move
there - then again, if you one of those guys that likes his car up on
blocks
for months at a time on a driveway stained by oil and transmission fluid,
with the car's engine suspended from a tree in the front yard, well then,
yeah, I guess you'd be against code enforcement.

It's got nothing to do with "code enforcement". It's all about tax
collection.

I think the code enforcement guys where I live do a great job - they are
professional, and, if anything, they bend over backwards to give the
offender the benefit of the doubt and plenty of time to correct the
deficiency.

You must live in Utopia.

How many angry homeowners does it take to push an univited Lynchburg home
inspector down the stairs?

None. He fell.
