A Comment Worthy Of A Post 9-11-17

Although concerning this is typical for many municipalities, and does not need a warrant. One scenario where an inspection could be initiated would be if the city has reason to believe you have performed unpermited plumbing work and are therefore discharging more wastewater than they are accounting for.

Publishers Notes: BS! While I thank Jake's inside people making such a comment, you're full of crap. EVERY home has an outside CLEAN OUT. If the City was anywhere close to honorable and truly needed to check homes/businesses they would NOT have to access either. They could go to the exterior clean out and do whatever testing they want. This is a massive invasion, period and it must be immediately stopped in its tracks. This proposal is all about getting into taxpayers properties and we ALL know about RETALIATION by the City. Say something challenging at a Council Meeting and guess who will be next on the list of inspections!

This is the 'search and seizure' law and it PROTECTS the residence...Search and Seizure Laws by State
Disclaimer
Searches and Seizures: Limitations of Police

The Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution ensures the right of every American “to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures,” with the added assurance that “no Warrants shall issue” without probable cause. In other words, police searching you or your property without a warrant is not permitted, and a warrant can be issued if there is probable cause.

Probable cause is generally defined as a reasonable belief that a crime has been committed based upon evidence or sufficient suspicion. A police officer’s hunch is never grounds for probable cause. If a legal basis for probable cause cannot be established, the officer usually must obtain a warrant before proceeding with a search or seizure.

If no valid warrant is present, you have the right to respectfully deny a search or seizure of your person or premises. Only with your express consent can an officer proceed until a warrant is issued.

Now Jake Day and City is trying to get in with NO CRIME and NO Probable Cause. Google and ask the question, 'can a law enforcement entity or city enter a residence without permission'? the answer is NO...period

Here's a link to show they can't even 'legally' enter your yard or back yard...

there are many more examples to read about...

Jake Day and the city are clueless, as usual. I suggest if this happens to anyone, you should NOT allow anyone to enter your home without a warrant signed by the Judge and then if it keeps up; sue ASAP...

Maybe he is headed down that slippery slope OC went and can't get themselves out of, where you cant even repair your own running toilet without having to call a plumber

One of the most asinine things I have heard of.

You would need to contact professional and get a permit to fix a leaky faucet.

Watching the meeting. Council seems like a herd of sheep. I imagine a bit of it is over some members heads. How do these additional positions get added with no cost? Watch out for next year's budget, they need lots of new payroll money. And I'm sure the Gillis folks have some fine premium office space for rent to house all these new directors.

For all of you that allege to know what is legal and illegal, challenge Salisbury in court, and see what that teaches you.

You can't discharge more that goes in through the meter no matter how you "illegally" reroute the drain pipes, Dummy!
