The OP’s eloquent post almost got it, but all you have to do is go to the county and ask to find out how it really works…and it ain’t gonna change.
District 5 only changed HOW violations are reported, wrongly in my view. All they will accomplish are “neighbor wars.” The Districts will NEVER police, even though they have people drive around all day, everyday—I know, it seems stupid—it’s a precept known as “selective enforcement.” They got you…but missed your neighbor. Then they (the enforcers) start doing getting people on “purpose” because they’re a “pain”. Barney Fife is alive and well! Then you sue…everybody sues. What’s the better business decision and more cost effective from the District’s view? Innumerable lawsuits or sending a guy out to verify when a report is made? You guessed it. I do agree with the one poster who said to keep confidential records of those who report—to ensure they have an actual interest (live) in the neighborhood.
