so apparently, i've sufficiently pissed off the stanford DPS to the point that they are done with 'warnings'.
some time ago, they issued me a couple warnings for having my car up on ramps and "non-operational". they claimed this constituted and 'abandoned vehicle', and claimed the right to tow. well, i took the car off ramps and moved it over a spot. problem solved.... until now. put the car up to install the engine. engine installed, transaxle installed, axles are on the cv joints, everthing good to go except the exhaust (long story). was gone ONE HOUR this afternoon, and i come back to find a red tow notice on my car! they have to go through a bunch of hassle to tow it apparently, so my 'tow date' is april 14th, but they can do it sooner if they wish. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/bs.gif) guess they don't want me working on my car here, huh?! hey, stanford: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/finger.gif) |

My letter to Snowden and his superior.... i've got some due process, according to the Santa Clara County code....
----- Officer Snowden, I’m disappointed with this action, and truly regret if you feel I have “forced your hand” into this. In fact, I have been working on this matter virtually non-stop since I returned home from the spring break, and am extremely close to finishing (missing one part that has to be shipped from across the country). Events occurred that unfortunately postponed the vehicle’s mechanical restoration, thus the delay. Just for sake of clarification, this car is only “abandoned” according to interpretation of local codes (not even the CVC provides a definition for “abandoned” in the context of private property); I have most assuredly NOT “abandoned” the vehicle according to any reasonable and usual definition of the word. Per the Santa Clara County Code, Sec. B12-180, I will assume that you are the acting Zoning Investigator, and that this letter (and the two taped to the car when I was away for an hour) gives me 10 days to correct the violation before being sent abatement notice. 10 days should not be necessary, but please do notify me if this is, in fact, not the case. looking forward to resolving this, Nathan Breitling |
