Lightworkers Expose Corruption

11/25/2024

We are in the era of corruption coming to the light.  This is an act of courage.  The biggest fear in confronting injustice is retaliation.  Indeed, several employees of the Office of Refugee Resettlement sent off alarm bells, and were subsequently fired.  I don't risk being fired, but I do risk being fined, over and over, by the city.

I was trying to figure out how to appeal the hearing findings on the ticket, and boy it is not easy.  I was told by the main supervisor I needed to get legal council.  This is so bizarre given that on their own paperwork they say I have the right to appeal the finding.  You would think there would be an avenue outlined on how to do this.

Everyone discouraged me from appealing, stating I would be in front of the same hearing officer.  This is besides the point.  If I have a right to appeal, I should have an easy path to do so.  I was also searching for how I could make a formal complaint against Matt Hayes.  It was easy to find links to pages to make complaints about your neighbors so that the Dept of Community Harassment, oh sorry I mean Development, could go and fine your neighbor.

What is going on here?  Why do we live in a society that is so cruel, cold and uncaring.  Get our your measuring stick and see if you can measure your soul.  I guess you won't ever get a ticket because it is non-existant!

I finally found a way to submit a complaint, it is a complaint against a civilian, not a city employee, which their should be special options for that, but there are not at the moment.  Here is what I submitted:

This is a formal complaint of harassment demonstrated against myself by Matt Hayes, an employee of the Department of Communituy Development. In July of 2022 Mr Hayes was responsible for th destruction of my property at 800 W. Thrush Ave. I did not pursue legal grievances at that time, but was featured on the news. The hearing stated that I was guilty of having tall weeds outside the gated area. In this case, I would beg the question, why then did the city come into my back yard and mow down the blueberry bushes, apple tree, rose bushes, cucumber plants and more. I paid the fine, but immediately following the hearing, Mr Hayes repeatedly parked his vehicle outside of my house for several days in a row. I contacted the city councilman to complain and following this, Mr Hayes desisted.

On October 10th of 2024 I found a notice in my door at 2225 Sheridan Rd. citing a code violation of tall weeds. There were a small number of fox tales that had sprung up. I immediately addressed them, however, the date I received the notice (the 10th of October) was also the final date. The citation had already been issued.
There was no 5 day notice.

I believe this was intentional and reflects harassment. First, Matt Hayes is not assigned to this area, and so it is strange to me that he would be issuing a violation for my property at all. I believe that he saw the for sale sign, and was taking the opportunity to harass me, causing me grief and expense.

During the hearing, it was stated that he was told to do a sweep down Sheridan. This should be verified. Regardless, the fact that the notice was not put into the door until AFTER the citation was already issued.
