Description
There are 6 unrelated people living in this house with no indoor plumbing. There has been a portable "huge" toilet sitting out front of the house since they have not done anything about the plumbing problem. Five weeks ago when the city "inspector" and I use the term loosely, came out The lady of the house told him they had a transitional home for men in recovery from their church. When they couldn't or wouldn't get a permit for that they changed and said they had three men being boarded in their home (they have four and I can show photographs of all four of them) which is conveniently okay with the city to have three unrelated people living there. What happened to the fact that she told the inspector that she was running a transition home when first confronted. What happened to our rights? There is a school right across the street. I wonder what Bishop O'Dowd would think of these saints living here?

Using a portable toilet for over a month...I think they would have a gray water permit for the pond of water in the back yard for mosquitoes.
Theres' the problem ...I say no more.
