In some of the funkier neighborhoods over in Portland, I swear there is a competition going to see who can make other people's eyes bleed...some of the color combinations paired with the odd and eclectic yard ornamentation can be quite loud.

Of course then we have Little Tijuana and all of it's "South of the Border" flair out toward Hillsboro, Aloha, parts of Beaverton, and so on...

;D

Chief, I'm betting they don't have a school bus parked on their driveway?? Or try to sell your property due to they want more yard?? Or don't mow their yards for months because well they are lazy? Or how about huge piles of lumber up under some huge pine trees? How about all those illegal signs? Life in Felida has gone to he** in a hand basket?? Just like all over Clark County due to no enforcement of the laws that are currently on the books??

My brother in law lived next door to a family of Mexicans out in Aloha, and these people got away with more BS out there than I could believe. They built an awning over their "deck", that was supported by the roof of the house on one end, and an old apple tree out in the yard on the other. I couldn't believe that Codes Compliance never got on them about that one, but it's still there.

You now have filed and they will be served.. Then they either will have to respond in some fashion or you'll win a judgement. Am I wrong?

Hope things do go well for you Karma..
