Growing food without a license. This really pissed me off. I don't normally participate in email outrage campaigns, but feel free to send a letter to krulkowski@ci.oak-park.mi.us

Planning and Technology Director Kevin Rulkowski will soon wish he chose another line of work. Gardeners are legion and rabid.

Done. Short, polite and to the point. I even refrained from addressing the stupid greedy bastard as Kamrade. Mom would be proud!

Eh? Nobody would have cared if they didn't make it look so fucking obnoxiously obvious, I'm willing to bet even roses planted in cheezy ass planters like that would have drawn a ticket.

But some cared very much and called the city."
And that's the bitch that needs to get the emails.

There's got to be some history here with the neighbors

For once, you make a very good point. Let's get her info.

Probably no special history with the neighbours. Every neighbourhood has an anal-retentive fuckwit who minds everyone else's business.
My neighbourhood has one. I met him when I put in my TV antenna 14 years ago. He was at my door in a couple hours complaining about radio interference from my "radio dish". I told him to fuck off, and he was back a few times complaining about interference. On the 5th visit, he threatened to call the regulator, so I invited him to do so. Never saw him again until 2006...
That summer I was going to put up an actual transmitting antenna (ham radio). So I bought the antenna before I even had a radio... I just owned an antenna... and sat the thing in my back yard so it was visible from the street if you were nosy and looking. Sure enough, the complaints started coming in, and I'd take the asshole out back and show him that it was just a piece of metal not connected to anything. This went on for a few weeks. Hooked up the radio after that and haven't had a complaint in 5 years since.
However... someone called the police on me and told them I was killing cats with a crossbow. Cool idea though that might be, I wasn't doing it and don't even own a crossbow. Had a nice police officer visit and he told me about how our neighbourhood shithead regularly called to report critically important issues like jaywalking kids etc. I'm sure he's the one who had me ticketed for parking over 3 hours in front of my own house.
I got him back though. A few years back he had a wireless router with default passwords. I filled his computer with sexy-seniors porn and, shall we say, dog and pony shows.
