Last year I had several letters from them. First it was the front yard, I mowed it once a week but that was not good enough. So I mowed it twice a week. Then I received notices about trash on my property. I checked everywhere in the yard. I was told that there were 2 or three mcdonalds cups in the front of my car port. I have a 3 car carport! Someone from code enforcement had to walk pasted 3 cars to look for cups in the carport.
After I complained about the intrustion I was told code enforcement could go anywhere they wanted to do there job. After that I received notices for my back alley way, I received them until I finally raked the alley to the dirt. Lastly they sent notice for trash on my front porch, the front porch is covered by roses and can only be seen from the side facing the car port. I cleaned the porch and sweeped it. When I came home from work several days later the city of Ada had stolen everything from my porch. I had new lawn chairs, boxes from my boyfriends dead grandma, a few pieces of furniture his grandma left him, and a recliner I had moved onto the porch for a friend to pickup. They told me it was all trash and charged me 250 for cleaning up my porch, so they said. I could not get my things back and had to pay 250 dollars. They had started again this year, My back alley is racked to dirt again and I am still being sent notices for it.

Are all of these letters from ONE specific officer or simply from the department as a whole ?
Have you any photographic evidence to back up your claims of harassment ?

Are these Code Enforcement officers citing any certain City Codes about trash, yard mowing, etc? Is there anywhere you can go and get a copy of all the City Codes that you are being cited for or other codes in case they do cite you for them as well? Are your neighbors also being cited or is it just you being singled out? If you are being singled out and your neighbors have not been cited for the same things you were I would definitely visit an attorney as you have been singled out and discriminated against.

So when you appeared in court before the judge from the citations, what did the judge say

I didn't have the options to see a judge. I was charged a 250 dollar fee 3 times for cleaning of my property. They didn't do anything, they claimed they cleaned up brush and bushes, I don't have any brush or bushes. This year a neighbor at the far end of my block dumped branches all over my back alley and the 2 houses next to me. The code enforcement department knows about the illegal dumping, but I was told it was on my property and was responsible for the clean up and could not dump it back because that would be illegal. I was told by the police it was a civil matter and they couldn't do anything.:confused:
