Yes I Was Violated!!!

Recently, F.A.C.E.OFF. Movement was contacted by another victim of Government Corruption and Aggressive Code Enforcement Abuse in Apache County, Arizona. Here, in his own words, is his story:

Hello my name is Ray Longbons and I live in Apache County, Az. and I want to tell you a story. It involves my due process rights being violated by the Apache County Officials and I have come to find it has happened to every property owner ever sent a violation letter by the Apache County Officials. Neither myself or any other property owner was allowed a hearing before being found guilty of any violation and the county recording a cloud on our titles.

About 3 years ago, I decided to construct a steel barn building. I had the foundation dug and poured a concrete slab per a set of engineered plans a buddy of mine used for the same building over in New Mexico. I had all 4 walls up and part of the roof when a Apache County Official was spotted on my property taking pictures. About a week later I received a letter stating that I needed a building permit to construct my building.

That's when nothing started making any sense. I finished the building and then called the county. The girl in the office I talked too said I needed to come in and apply for a building permit. I went to St John's with my letter received and filled out the paper work for a permit like she asked me to do. The size, plans, plot as to where is was located on my property were given to them.

A few days later I received a call from one of the counties building inspectors. He asked a few question, but was not aware that the building was already constructed. When I made him aware that the building was already constructed, he said I would have to talk to Homer, the big boss.

After many phone calls I finally got through to Homer. He said I would have to get a variance on the constructed building, because is was constructed without a permit.

I WAS NEVER GIVEN A OPPORTUNITY
TO APPEAL IT!

A variance is quite a bit of work to obtain. Also it cost me $300.00 to obtain it. All land owners around the property had to be informed that the building was constructed without a permit. I had to go on the county internet site and get all names and addresses to give to the county so THEY could notify those owners.

I had taken pictures of all construction as I built the building, so I had a record as to how the foundation, slab, anchors in concrete were done. Homer asked me to get the Engineered Foundation Plans approved by his buddy at a engineering firm across the street. The plans were approved for a county in New Mexico that has a lots more snow load than in my area, but he said they had to be Arizona approved. I did as requested, $500.00 to stamp the prints,

the start of the GOOD OLE BOYS ATTITUDE
in Apache County.

17 copies of all photos, plans, plot, etc.had to be supplied to the County by me.
A lot of Work.

A letter was received by me as to when a Variance hearing would be held. The variance hearing gives local neighbors the right to object to the building. No one who was notified came to the meeting!

My property is located 7 miles north of the highway in on dirt and cinder roads. I own a total 30 acres adjacent. I attended the variance hearing, answered a few questions when asked to do so. The variance hearing was done telephonic with 3 or 4 people on their phones at home or work. They were to be the ones to decide on if the building was PROPER.

None of these people from what I have found out have any engineering degrees or actual building experience as contractors, however they were deciding on whether my building was constructed properly. Not the Building Dept!

The Variance was approved, but I was then told I would have to purchase a $600.00 building permit. That is when I said enough! A building permit is to build, The building was already

BUILT!
and APPROVED

by the
Variance Committee.

A few weeks later, A Apache County Assessor came out to my property to access the property. He was a very nice guy and ASKED if he could call my building a BARN! He said by calling it a barn, the tax rate would be a lot lower. He asked to see what I was doing with the Barn, I showed him I was storing all my garden tools, motorcycles, ATV's and collected junk in it. He said definitely it was a BARN. I then find out that I don't need a permit for a barn if it is on more than 5 acres.

Mine sits in the middle of my
20 acre property.

I THEN received a letter notifying me that if I didn't buy the $600.00 building permit, my property would be tagged with a code violation that would affect my properties value. I did not buy the permit, and they have tagged the property with the Code Violation and did NOT NOTIFY me that it was done!

NEVER GAVE A OPPORTUNITY FOR A APPEAL/HEARING,
HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I BEEN VIOLATED??????

Apache County Building does not know what they are doing! They have different rules for their buddies. I have been told a couple of Official's of the County have built similar buildings without permits and are using them not for barn purposes. Lets find out how they are being TAXED.

It's all about Money!!!!!!!!!!!

I now find out they didn't have the power to do anything that they have done.

Yes I was Violated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks
Ray Longbons

Christine Marfut Speaks Out on ABC 7 News

On Friday, October 8th, North Port, Florida, F.A.C.E.OFF. Organizer Christine Marfut was interviewed by Josh Taylor, Reporter/Anchor with ABC 7 WWSB TV in Sarasota, Florida, and her story was featured on their evening news. Here is the link to the YouTube video:
Christine Marfut Speaks Out about Code Enforcement on ABC 7 News

During the interview, Christine talked about her ongoing cases of outrageous harassment by the City of North Port:

One woman says she could owe up to $200,000 for a tent and a roof patch job. She's now taking her fight to the Internet and getting others facing fines involved...

"I will fight them as much as I can."

...Now she's banning together with others across the country. It's called Face Off. It stands for Fight Against Code Enforcement Office.

"This movement is growing...people all over the Country."

People from California may be coming to help us..."

Here is the link to Christine Marfut's story on the Florida F.A.C.E.OFF. blog:
NEVER Patch Your Roof in North Port!!!
And YouTube Videos of a conversation she had with North Port City Commissioner David Garofalo about what has been going on:

THE ALL THINGS COMMON SHOW

Podcast of Nicki & Christine Talking to Gary

During her interview with ABC 7 WWSB TV Reporter/Anchor Josh Taylor, Christine pointed out some very shameful things that the City of North Port, Florida, is doing to its Citizens:

"They have harassed people.
They have violated The Constitution."

Of course you've always got at least one local elected official who has no clue about Our Constitution and just doesn't get Property Rights at all:

Jones says the fines get so high because people don't do anything. He says that's the last thing you should do. "We are doing our best to be compassionate about it and still keep up the property values and integrity of our neighborhoods."

Commissioner Tom Jones
Seat # 2 (Bio)
tjones@cityofnorthport.com

(941) 429-7000

Sorry, Jones!!!!

The Government is not our Mommy, tellin' us when to clean our rooms, and the Government is not our Daddy, tellin' us to go out and mow the lawn. In fact, the Government actually works for us, Jones! We the People of North Port, Florida, are actually your bosses!

you, The Government
work for
US, The People!!!

As Bruce Wechsler, from your Code Enforcement Sister City Palm Bay, Florida, told radio talk show host Bill Mick:

"If I don't have a right to go to my neighbor
and tell him to clean up or I'm gonna fine him,
I have no right to give Government the authority to do that."

Here is the link to the podcast of that show, Jones, so you can listen and learn from their entire conversation about Code Enforcement and why our neighbors and The Government have no Constitutional Right to tell us how to live on our own properties:

Bill Mick Live Podcast

Bruce Wechsler: We've talked about rights before, and you don't have a right ta anything that requires anybody else to do anything. It can't be a right then...if it's forcing somebody else to do anything. When it comes to Government, you also don't have a right to collectivize and authorize the Government to do something you don't have a right to. If I don't have a right to go to my neighbor and tell him to clean up or I'm gonna fine him, I have no right to give Government the authority to do that. This is where we gotta start...[laughs]...coming to our senses, and that's why I have a hard time with alotta the people who supposedly are for Small Government, because they're for Small Government...

Bill Mick: Except for this...

Bruce Wechsler: Except for this...or but...not when...and this...and we have to follow the Constitution...except here...because we have another way around it...and all this...It's one or the other folks...take care of yourselves, leave everybody else alone, or stop makin' believe that you really believe in limited government, and you believe in fundamental rights. Cause if you think that you can give somebody else the authority to do something that you can't do yourself, you're wrong, you're immoral! And that's what we do by givin' Government the power of the gun—the power of aggression over other people.

Bill Mick's fantastic show can be heard every weekday from 6am-9am on WMMB AM 1240/1350. You can also listen, at your leisure, to his podcasts, or you can stream his show live from his website:
Bill Mick's Website

Bruce Wechsler usually co-hosts the show with Bill Mick on Mondays during the 7am Hour, so that is when you can hear more of his words of wisdom about Freedom and Our Constitutional Rights.

Sooooo, how about you brushin' up a little
on your Constitution there, Jones?????

Thanks Alot!

Really Appreciate it!!!

Oh...and Jones...check out Ventura, California, if you want to see how We the People really feel about Aggressive Code Enforcement Abuse:
Speak Up, Ventura

The White Rose

In 1942, a group of students, and their philosophy professor, organized a non-violent resistance group to oppose Adolf Hitler in Germany. The group was called The White Rose. They launched a leaflet campaign calling for opposition to the dictator and his Nazi regime. One of their leaflets was smuggled out of the Country and, in July of 1943, Allied planes dropped copies of it across Germany. Also in 1943, the six core members of the group were arrested and executed by the German Secret Police. Today, the members of The White Rose are honored, amongst Germany's greatest heroes, for their brave opposition to Tyranny in the face of Death.

On July 15, 2010, Don Casey, Vice-Chairman of the Alliance for Citizens Rights, came down from Alabama to give a presentation about Sustainable Development, to the Citizens of Brevard County, Florida, at an event arranged by Barbara Knick, Brevard 912 Project Organizer, Penny Canales, Brevard County F.A.C.E.OFF. Movement Organizer, and Jerry Brinegar, F.A.C.E.OFF. Movement Co-Founder.

Aggressive Code Enforcement Abuse has been called one of the "arms" of Sustainable Development, so understanding Sustainable Development is extremely important for everyone.

After the presentation, people who attended the event told Penny Canales, as they were leaving the meeting room, that they were shocked, angry, and nauseated by what they had seen! One of the slides that disturbed people the most came from this powerful 10-minute video that Don Casey created:

A Christmas Grim--Code Enforcement
Past, Present & Future

To give you an idea of how much the Evil People that are making Big Money by destroying Our Nation do not want you to hear what Don Casey has to say, Penny Canales told me about this incident that occurred after the meeting: A man who attended the event came up to Don Casey and asked for his card. He then ripped up the card, right in front of Don Casey.

To give you an idea of how seriously out of hand Sustainable Development is in Brevard County, Florida, Don Casey told Penny that, in the 18 years he has been educating people about Sustainable Development, he has never seen a County as bad as Brevard! Of course Don may not yet have seen your County. If, after watching his presentation below, you think that he should, give him a call, at the number below, and invite him to come take a look!

Here is the video of Don Casey's presentation to the Citizens of Brevard County:
Sustainable Freedom V. Sustainable Development

Please, America...
WAKE UP!!!

Before it's too late!!!

Here are the links to the podcasts of Don Casey talking about Sustainable Development and Sustainable Communities with Internet Talk Show Host Gary Chapman:

Sustainable Development
Sustainable Communities Act

And here is the link to Gary's website where you can hear all of his shows about Code Enforcement and many other topics of interest to Freedom Fighters everywhere:

If you have any questions about Sustainable Development, would like to have more information mailed to you about it, or would like to arrange to have Don Casey make a presentation to your group, you can contact Don at 205-701-0383.

Thank You, Gary!

Wake Up, State of Arizona!

On April 15^th, 2009, three citizens of Brevard County, Florida, started a grassroots movement to expose and eliminate the aggressive and abusive Code Enforcement practices that are starting to take a stranglehold across Our Nation. As you can see from the following links, these practices are already well-entrenched:

From California to Alabama - Code Enforcement has Become an Arm of Sustainable Development (While you are at this link, also click on the words, "Code Enforcement -- Don't Come Knocking on My Door")

Code Enforcement Working to Abolish Private Property

Note in the above article the reference to what they call the "illegal Kangaroo Court" where people who are being attacked by Code Enforcement are forced to pay outrageous fines to the Government, sometimes simply because an anonymous (and quite possibly completely unfounded) complaint has been made against them. Whatever happened to our right to face our accusers? How about innocence until proven guilty in a court of law? (Not at a quasi-judicial hearing where the magistrate may actually be a private real estate lawyer who can do whatever he pleases!)

We believe that alot of these practices are illegal, and they are definitely unConstitutional!

Our group is called F.A.C.E.OFF. (Fight Against Code Enforcement OFFice). In order to reach other citizens, we have picketed, passed out flyers, and gone door-to-door in neighborhoods. The response we have gotten, from the people we have talked to, has been tremendous. One evening, shortly after we formed our group, two of us spent 4 hours canvassing just half of one street in the June Park area of Brevard County. Once people started talking to us, and realized why we were there, they suddenly opened up and began to tell us their own stories. An incredible number of them had already been attacked by Code Enforcement, or knew someone who had. The stories they told us were heartbreaking chronicles of people whose lives had been ruined by abusive Code Enforcement. We even talked to a former Code Enforcement Officer, who told us that he was so disgusted by the things that went on behind closed doors in the department, that he quit the job! He said that the money wasn't worth it (despite the fact that the job was very well-paid) because of the misery that it caused and the corruption that he saw.

Do you really want this???
Do you really want the entire Nation to become a giant deed-restricted community where government officials drive around in their fancy, expensive, high-tech vehicles looking for code violations so that they can extort money from you? Stand up now, and draw a line in the sand, before little Johnny comes home from school, sometime in the not-to-distant future, with a note in his backpack that looks like this:

"Dear Parents: Please remember that this Friday will be Paint Chip Show and Tell Friday. Please make sure that Johnny brings in his paintchip from your house, so that we can be sure that your paint has not faded to a non-compliant color over Summer Vacation. Also, as I'm sure you are aware, we asked little Johnny to measure your lawn yesterday, and the grass is still too long, so your daily fine will now be raised from $25 to $50 until we can verify that you have come back into compliance. Sincerely, Your Friendly School Code Enforcement Resource Officer"

So what can we do?

OUR SIMPLE PLAN:

Step 1: Reaching the People Who Have Suffered

I have been able to gauge the interest of the people in our issue by holding up my picket sign, which says, “CODE ENFORCEMENT: TAXING YOUR FREEDOM TO LIVE” at various events. By doing so, I have discovered that many, many people have been harmed by and hate Code Enforcement. People have stopped me everywhere and asked about my sign. Then they have told me their own heart-wrenching stories about how they, or someone they care about, has been harmed by abusive Code Enforcement. As one old gentleman told a member of our group:

“It's not the stupid stuff they harass you about. It's the mental anguish they cause—the sleepless nights, the constant looking over your shoulder, never knowing when they will attack you again.”

By holding up my sign beside the road, I was able to get a very good idea of how Code Enforcement was viewed by the drivers going by. Some people slowed down to read my sign. When they saw the words, “CODE ENFORCEMENT” their eyes widened, as they craned their heads to read more. Some turned around and drove back, so that they could read it again. One group stopped in a turn lane and asked me if they could photograph the sign. Hundreds of them either honked repeatedly, raised fists out their windows, shouted, waved, or gave me the thumbs up. Some of them would realize, after they passed me, what the sign actually said, and would begin to honk furiously to let me know that they agreed. These are the people we need to reach. These are the people who know what Code Enforcement in Our Country has become: An aggressive, abusive, illegal, unConstitutional way for the government to extort money from frightened citizens.

Step 2: Letting Our Government Officials Know How We Feel

In our quest to find out how our citizens' group could make ourselves effective in bringing about change, we tried many different things and talked to many politicians, and local government officials, to ask them for advice. Most of them agreed that the only way that things can be changed is for us, We the People, to convince our Government Officials that we, their constituents, do not want abusive Code Enforcement. Once we have reached the people who have been wronged, and who are suffering, because of Code Enforcement, we must put pressure on our Government Officials, by calling them and meeting with them, to make them aware of how we feel about abusive Code Enforcement and make them aware of the pain and suffering it is causing for the people that they were put into office to serve!

Thank You for your interest in helping us eliminate the Tyranny of Abusive Code Enforcement!

It's Happening Here in Arizona!

Yesterday, F.A.C.E.OFF. Movement received an e-mail from a man who has dedicated his life to fighting for Property Rights in Arizona. His name is George Walsh, and he has created a wonderful website that he would like to share with other Freedom Fighters across Our Nation. Here is the link:
Apache County Individual & Property Rights Assoc

And here are some of the things that George has to say about his website, and about joining together with other groups in the fight to take back control of our Out-of-Control Government:

Howdy,

My name is George Walsh and I thought I would share my site with you. As the ultra vires actions of Zoning enforcement officials is out of control and needs to be stopped for all property owners...I have worked alone to try and get folks to standup but many have forgotten what rights they have and so many more never knew. And I each and everyday work to educate the property owners in my area and send emails to groups all over the USA. I have been working to get every county in Arizona to have a related group so we could all share information and work on the larger state issues when needed...I just thought if more groups shared information we could win some of these battles...

But for now in Apache County I work on the property rights issue alone for the most part. But many are taking part just in smaller ways from behind the scenes. Many are afraid to be public or to speak out against the evil empire of GOOD ole boys here in Apache County. I have often called this county way of doing thing as the Dukes of Hazzard county and their ordinances were the speed trap. Never legally adopted nor legally enforced. But yet for 25 years they have been enforcing what was never adopted. And every single property ever given a violation was denied all due process before being found guilty and having a cloud recorded against their property. With no way to defend the alleged violation...

I want them to know who is standing up and not taking it any more...I have attached a picture of me from when I was planning a run for county supervisor. It was to be my effort to end the abuse. But I instead supported a Republican and he lost by less then 200 votes. And just so you know I was also threatened by these public officials if I kept looking into what they were doing...I had to stop going to meeting for fear of being set up or arrested.

I am and have been looking for a lawyer and have had no luck but I am still hopeful I will find one and be able to take this case to court... I have been looking for Constitutional rights lawyers for ours is a civil rights violation as well as a property rights violation. And I figured I might have a better chance in that area and use it to expose the zoning enforcement problems. I have had to think outside the box. I many times look for laws they have violated and put them on notice of their own violations.

The small wins I have are they stopped recording new violations last Sept 2009 and have not recorded any new ones. And they have sent at least one violation letter that was somewhat legal. But it has gone nowhere as they are starting to understand they were wrong but will never admit that.

Have a great day and keep spreading the word. And keep protecting the property owners rights.

Thank you
George Walsh

Apache County Individual & Property Rights Association

Code Enforcement Officers Out in Force
Excerpt from the above newspaper article,
published in the Douglas Dispatch,
on Saturday, September 5, 2009:

"Code Enforcement Officers have begun to issue notices to residents regarding weeds and property maintenance. If you have not received a notice as of yet, and you see that you have weeds in your yard or other nuisance violations such as; un-screened storage of personal property, inoperable vehicles in your yard or on the street, or weeds and trash in the City’s public right’s of way (the areas between your property line and curb/edge of pavement) which includes but it is not limited to the front or side of your property and the alleyways behind your property, we respectfully ask that you get these areas cleaned before any enforcement action is taken."

If, for some reason, you believe that you live in America and would rather keep your property the way that you like to keep it, and have whatever you would like to have on it, here is who you can complain to about receiving your notice of violation:
