Greg Rice's property gets tagged again

Comment Up

This morning, on several occasions, I was on Lucerne Avenue west of Dixie. Sheriff vehicles were all over the place, stopping speeders, coming out of side streets with their lights flashing. I don't have a problem with them stopping speeders especially in residential areas such as Lucerne Avenue. People are crossing that street all of the time, some with little babies in carriages. But a full court press for revenue and concentrating on someone going 10mph over the 25 mph speed limit instead of the vandals who are constantly painting graffiti in our city--is that the most productive use of their time?

The graffiti continues at this property. This is an illegal act.  It is vandalism and the graffiti "artist's" message has been heard, over and over again. What can or will the sheriff do about it?

Hummmmm wasn't this property on the magistrates agenda (Demolition or Repair) back when they got to the churches etc but not this property? Isn't there some law where they have a year to deal with it or tear it down? Is it Historical? Why is THIS OWNER so SPECIAL? If the owner sits on the P&Z Board that might be a part of that decision - is that right? Now it's tagged w/an UNAPPROVED Artists Mural! Oh My - What shall the city do w/THIS OWNER - EXACTLY THE SAME THING IT DOES TO EVERY OTHER OWNER! Fee fine and fatigue them into compliance! The city will TAKE HOMESTEADED PROPERTY for 10in of grass (TAKING before your Mortgage and before any other liens GOV GREED GETS GOODIES FIRST) but a favorite fellow gets to go SCOTT FREE (Where are Scott's Teeth NOW?)
