Description
This front yard is an auto shop! The city continues to get reports about them, but nothing ever changes. The guys get warned, so they stop for a bit, then the city drops it, then they start up again. And when a resident re-reports it then the process starts all over again. THE CITY NO LONGER HAS A POLICY TO KEEP TRACK IF REPEAT OFFENDERS. Instead, each time it's as if this were the first time the city is ever hearing about this.

The term "Pinoy", though in popular usage, is still considered by most Filipinos as a racial slur and derogatory. Better not to insult an entire nationality, when you're mad at a specific person. Hopefully no one reading this in CODE ENFORCEMENT is Philipino. :-o

Thanks for the heads up. I assure you I meant no disrespect (or outright racism). He has a "Pinoy Pride" tattoo and occasionally goes by "Pinoy". Like I said in a previous comment, I think he's a great guy, sweet and kind, and I'm certainly not mad at him.
