Violations are: - Casement windows on third floor - Stockade fence exceeds height limit - Stockade fence between building and street - Picket fence exceeds height limit - Fences outside property boundaries Hinge, you seem to be implying that $$$ and quality gives one the right to violate the zoning codes. Certainly that's not what you mean, or is it? > Maybe the zoning code is more of the problem. > And if Asbury is going to start cracking down on people that are > trying to do something good to their properties, shouldn't they first > start addressing the people who don't take care of the properties they > own? I hope you are not in the camp of "any improvement is a good improvement" . You seem to be confused about the roles of Zoning and Code Enforcement. Zoning regulates land use, mass, bulk, setbacks, architecture, density etc. Code enforcement deals with garbage, maintenance, over-crowding, health hazards, etc. > Case in point, the horrendous bungalow near the corner of 1st and > Kingsley.
