Therefore, when you take up residents in Sullivan, you basically have <strong>no rights to protect you as a renter.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People, you <strong>&#8220;DON&#8217;T&#8221; have a &#8220;CODE ENFORCEMENT&#8221; <\/strong>team to assist you and your family in respect to what&#8217;s going on inside. <strong>NOTHING TO KEEP YOU SAFE. NO LAWS TO PROTECT YOU AS A RENTER.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So, that brings me to these questions &#8220;CITY OF SULLIVAN&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT TYPE OF CODE ENFORCEMENT EXIST NOW?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT SIZE &#8220;TEAM&#8221; DOES SULLIVAN CODE ENFORCEMENT HAVE &#8211; DOES IT HAVE A TEAM?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>WHAT IS THE BUDGET FOR CODE ENFORCEMENT?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There seems to be <strong>&#8220;NO SAFETY MECHANISM&#8221;<\/strong> in place to protect renters from &#8220;FIRST DIBBERS&#8221; damaged property. <strong>(Designed For People Like Us &#8211; &#8220;POOR PEOPLE&#8221;)<\/strong> &#8211; Low Income People. <strong>We keep their pockets lined.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is what I noticed today while in court. <strong>Over 90% of the cases called <\/strong>by the &#8220;Judge&#8221; <strong>were &#8220;NOT&#8221; in court<\/strong>. This tells me that the <strong>&#8220;PAIN&#8221; of &#8220;NOT&#8221; having a &#8220;TRUE&#8221; <\/strong>Code Enforcement Agency has &#8220;<strong>DESTROYED&#8221; faith in the people and community<\/strong>.  I WATCHED TODAY, <strong>A MAN JUST THROW HIS HAND UP<\/strong>,  HE STATED . <strong>&#8220;I JUST WANT TO GET THIS DONE&#8221; <\/strong> THAT WAS <strong>HEARTBREAKING FOR ME TO SEE.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why go to court when you feel you are going to loose &#8220;ANYWAY&#8221;?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let me tell you why.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you start going to court and began <strong>asking the important questions, the &#8220;Judge&#8221; will begin to understand exactly what is going on in the housing community<\/strong>. The City of Sullivan have put in place <strong>&#8220;ROAD BLOCKS&#8221;<\/strong> to prevent you from having your say.
