What answer are you looking for? The landlord has terminated the lease for the owner of the plate office. They have to vacate in August - period. Does this mean they want them there for the "greedy" $50....NO! It's private property and if a preacher was standing there like the person you are referring, telling people stuff, the owner has a right by law, to tell them to leave. Do you know anything about our laws and owning private property? What this noble person did, was again, breaking the rules of society and normal people just don't get why we have problems in society today. It's crap like not obeying signs and trying to take matters into their own hands....etc. The only way for this situation to reverse itself going forward, is by changing the laws.
I'm over it. At some point I realized that I couldn't get you to explain how running off people who were trying to help the landlord achieve what you claim is his objective PROVES that there is an ulterior motive, at least for the towing company, i.e. bilking those people. No amount of mental - and semantic - gymnastics can show otherwise.
A towing company just planting itself on the premises . . . and booting car after car, knowing full well that people are standing in line and cannot possibly conduct their business quickly . . . is just the modern equivalent of slashing someone's tires.
The bully of a landlord is too much of a wimp to walk out and take the flack for slashing the tires himself . . . so he has given space and permission for a towing company to hang around on his property all day - and do the modern equivalent of tire slashing.
I don't care how many "no parking" signs are there - and if they are legit or not! It is up to the landlord to provide parking and he has known all along there was not enuff parking to comfortably accommodate the people going in and out to get tags. So instead of solving the problem with HIS property lacking enuff parking, he has decided to make life miserable for those who are required by law to take care of their tags.
I see the failing on the part of the landlord - to provide adequate parking. He is just blame shifting - and being spiteful about it, at that.
It would serve him right if someone made it his/her mission in life to follow that sonuvagun around and call a towing company every time he violated a parking rule . . . or turned right on red when he wasn't supposed to . . . or made an illegal u-turn . . . I will bet you a dime to a dollar that this guy thinks rules only apply when they are in his favor.
I agree hat property manager is within his rights to enforce it the way he did, but good god, what he did to that elderly woman with the handicapped sticker is simply inhuman. It's obvious she didn't understand what was going on, didn't have the $50 to pay the fine and he was going to take her car and put her on the street. If it wasn't for that good smaritian who paid that elderly lady's fine with $50, after paying her own $50 fine, who knows what might have happened to her. It would have been easy enough to tell that old lady about the signs instead of forcing her to walk home.
I would call the guy a snake, but that wouldn't be fair to the snakes.
Right or wrong, I'm surprised someone hasn't decked one (or more) of the towing company employees yet.
