Damn Scenes, you are checking ALL of the dispatch logs. Or at least the GV and Nirvana City dispatch logs of calls.

You follow the municipalities and I will do the county…..from Combie to PV to NSJ to the place where the Women are Rough and the men are Ready to little town of Washing Machine and all non three digit addresses. Screw the Nirvana City and GV. Too many of those calls are Karens and Punchy calling in about someone put a ‘Go Back To Berkeley You Stink Ass’ sign on a stop sign near the Miners Foundry. I like the Kabooms!, not the duds.
When the current snow emergency is over, then all those calls about crazy neighbors and punks on dope will filter in. In a middle of a snowstorm with roads shut down, do you really think the cops are going to go out and arrest someone without a shirt on walking down the road screaming at lampposts. I notice the actually arrests are currently at a minimum, as it should be. Someone strange car parked in front of some paranoid Karen’s house for 5 minutes with the engine running? Sorry Karen, deal with it. Lol.

Rosendale has faced scrutiny in the past for his connections to fringe groups on the right.
In 2014, a photo was taken of him speaking at an Oath Keepers rally in Montana. The leader of that group, Stewart Rhodes, was convicted last year of seditious conspiracy for his role in the Capitol riot; he has yet to be sentenced.
Rosendale voted to oppose the certification of election results from a number of states, amid pressure from then-President Trump to overturn the 2020 election because of baseless claims that the contest was stolen from him.”

“Former President Trump also delivered remarks that were in character but still dangerous. His claims about expelling warmongers, driving out globalists, casting out communists, and throwing off those who hate our country echo classic #antisemitic rhetoric.”
The inference is that Jews are warmongers, globalists, and communists (I guess, being globalists, they are the Trotsky variety of communist).

So, if Tom Jurkin goes not get money to make his video to encourage the County to adopt emergency measures about him living in a trailer or old bus or RV, then he will continue to live in FEAR about getting red tagged and forced to move on. It is apparent that despite all his pontification about the homelessness, it is Tom himself who has a very vested personal interest in getting new emergency regs passed so that he can continue to flaunt the law. Quite a large personal stake our esteemed journalist has in “helping the homeles.s” The one with the most to lose and most to win is none other that our esteemed Union freelancer himself.

If I can get a nonprofit to sponsor me, I can apply for a $100K grant to do a documentary on alternative housing and conduct a public awareness campaign to encourage the Board of Supervisors to write emergency housing regulations.
Those regs would allow unhoused and underhoused people (like me) to live safely and without fear of forced relocation in alternative dwelling units (AltDUs) such as trailers, yurts, RVs, tiny homes, and self-managed homeless camps.”………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..…………..what the hay is underhoused? You repeatedly and most unequivocally declared that the five abodes people were being evicted off some lady’s 10 acres were SAFE, yet they were red tagged (or should have been on the spot) and deemed unsafe from the get-go. Good thing you never made it as a home builder here IF that is your messed up idea of SAFE. So now your safe abode is under constant threat because it is underhoused? Your are under the the existing threat of forced relocation?? What the hay is going on here? Somehow, we only get half the story from you, Tom. And you resent the heck out of people talking trash about your abode? I wonder why. They say God created whiskey to keep he Irish from ruling anything. How true, how true. It’s ALWAYS about you. Now if you can find some fools to sponsor you, you could squeeze the taxpayers to make a $100,000 documentary with moving pictures and sounds. Sounds about right.

Excellent reply Scott O. First good laugh of the day….with hopefully many more to come. “I thought we could become friends.” Classic.

You know fellars of the Circle of Jerks, the ONLY one who talked about us losing all credibility is former KVMR news director. Just saying. It was one of his desperate wild swings in the air.
Personally (and this is just me and nobody else) but I find it impossible to take seriously anyone like Punch who murdered or had murdered every child he ever had. He sure gets triggered when called “baby killer.” If the shoe fits……
To be fair, the Ponytail of Complete Ignorance could be shooting blanks all his life, aka, The Sterile Cuckoo.
Talk about losing all credibility.

Huh. That’s a good point. With a decent search feature on typepad (which it doesn’t) and a bit of consideration, most anyone could be identified by phraseology. An AI would be super good at it.
As a side note, ‘Bill Evans’ is the name of a couple of prominent bonafide musicians.
Paul Emery:
10/21: “Scenes You’ve already cancelled any credibility you might have on this issue so give it up.”
8/22: “Who cares what you “doubt” fishmouth. You have no credibility because you won’t even use your…”
11/19: “The poll you refer to is a vanity poll Gregory and has no credibility. People…”
8/22: “He has no credibility and was one of those that led us into those costly and tragic wars…”
‘credible’ is another tell.
Since being a modern News Editor implies that you poke around the internet and repeat any old thing you see that you agree with, and then feed it to the public as if you have personal knowledge, this ‘credible’ thing is good arrow in your quiver. It all becomes a war over who has the most ‘credible’ (ie. I agree with it) sources.

scenes: Nevada County building codes.
I remember reading in the local rag a few years back about a couple of metal building that blew over in high winds. Read something about the County’s new codes for metal garages, sheds, shops. Did not have much interest to me until…..until…..until……until….I wanted a metal storage building. Oh my.
A simple detached 600 sq. ft metal AG building/storage shed/shop with no services. No power, no water, no toilet. A stand alone 20’x 30’ metal shed. Easy Peary, right? NOT!
First, Nevada County is only one of four counties in all of Northern California that does not accept the manufactures’ engineered plans, which come with the purchase and install for everyone else. Nope, I had to get an engineering architect to submit the plans, 3 copies of blue signed. That added $1,100 plus to the cost. Add permit fees (about 2k), school fees (only $65) and now I am really to get started, right? Nope.
The cement guy in Yuba City came highly recommended but refused to do any more work in Nevada County. Why? Because everywhere else you apply for pre-work inspection, get the ok to start, and then dig the forms and lay the rebar in, send pics to the inspector, and then pour. Not in Nevada County. First, the ready to start inspection. Then you dig the forms, compact soil, lay the rebar and everything stops. You have to have the building inspector come out pre-pour cause Nevada County does not accept photos with tape measures from the contractor. So, the contractor instead of digging the forms, compacting the soil, send in the job site pics and get ready to do the pour, has to make two trips minimum to Nevada County, wait for inspector for ok. A one day job for a small slab with a good experienced cement guy is now two-three days and dealing with the county. Small stuff, but he no longer deals with Nevada County. But, that’s small potatoes.
For my steel shed, I needed (again engineered) a one foot wide and one foot deep minimum foundation. WTH? My humble abode is less that 20 years old and rests on a six INCH wide foundation and they require a one foot foundation now for a detached metal building with or without slab! Yes, one can put a nice steel building on dirt or asphalt without the slab and I won’t get into those anchor requirements here. My anchors alone cost about 700 bucks.
So, that is to make it safe cause one or two do it yourselves put up crappy metal buildings. The manufacture sent two great guys and they did great, great, great clean profession work.
Anyway, my zoning is AG, not even AR or RA. And had to submit elevation reports, snow level reports, strength of steel and anchor reports, etc. And where I live, there has been no accumulated record of snowfall since 1960.
So, imagine what the structural requirements would be for an open sided carport tall enough to park an RV or trailer under up around Tom Jurkin’s self directed homelessness camp would be. To Residential zoning, Nevada County let you live on site in a trailer for one year….once you pull construction permits to build a legal abode with septic, power, etc.
My 3 bed 2 bath abode with vaulted ceilings sits on a six inch wide raised foundation…..yet a detached steel building requires a one foot wide foundation in 2023.
Tom’s underhoused abode is zoned R. Residential has different, tighter requirements. :).
One complaint, one health department/inspector truck roll.

From a horrid fly-over state: That’s one born and raised Californian who ain’t ever coming back.
-FYI. WY has a volunteer legislature. This year’s legislative session was 37 days. One of the most significant bills passed during the session was the state’s supplemental budget, where $1.4 billion was placed into savings. For every dollar spent in the budget, $3.50 was put into savings.
Comparing California’s debt of $152,772,292.00 or $12,823 per capita (SLG). Wyoming has a surplus of $3.8 billion available after bills have been paid, which is a credit of over $19,000 per capita. Here is a question. Which State is fiscally responsible?
