Well, obviously I'd rather hire no one. I was asking if anyone knew of another way, such as the local zoning board, (tried, no help), county attorney, etc.--someone who is on the public payroll that can help with an issue like this. I was looking for advice, not condesending comments, thank you very much. If anyone has any USEFULL comments I'd appreciate it.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
There should be professionals called private land use consultants that could be architects, attorneys, land planners, retires City workers etc. that specialize in land use issues (zoning ajustments, variances, building code and zoning appeals etc.) but do not work for the government.
If you know that the action is occuring, you could easily file a written Request For Investigation with the zoning department to put them on notice of a zoning violation. Another action would be to file a complaint in civil court pro se if you wish.
Would this information be useful to you?
