I refused to pay the countym the fee of $571 to replace a modular home here on the farm, I have as a rental. Only one department came to inspect, the ceptic system. No others would come out here and earn the money (fee). I found out my permit number and slaped it on a piece of paper for the front of the two part unit to be move onto the site. Five years later, this jerk decides to collect the dollars. I told him there are two ways to leave this farm and he had better have a court order to be here. He got one from another county as all three judges had a conflict of interest, there are good friends of mine. In fact, one is the godfather of my children. He arrived with four deputies. Two which had been students. The students were applogetic. I told that I would have been upset with them if they were not doing as they were insutructed. The code guy started tell me I had to get a permit to push blackberries around and I said no way. He kept insisting that he was right. I told he I had served 4 years on the planning commission in the county and two as chair, I knew the rules. He backed off and never went to the site of the new home and left. The next day I was in the County court house and had three commissioners in a room, listening to me about the happenings the previous day. By the end of the day, the "jerk" was out of a job.
