If not, then how do you explain this?

The City of Shady Cove Ordinance 111-1, Section 2, titled: Compliance, Enforcement and Penalties.

Of particular interest is the following excerpt.

_______________________________________________________________________________________

2.3 Enforcement shall be carried out as follows:

A. The City's designated Building Official shall have the authority to enter any building or premises for the purpose of investigation and inspection; provided that no dwelling shall be so entered without consent of the occupant unless twenty-four (24) hour notice of intention to enter has been served upon the occupant. .____________________________________________________________

The U.S . Constitution with the 4th Amendment requires the police to obtain a search warrant , signed by a judge to enter premises for the purpose of investigation, even your car. However, the Council and Mayor of Shady Cove have assigned the appointment of a "Building Official" to the City Administrator, a position which then has city power not even authorized by the Constitution, Under this umbrella, the city police department presently has at least two of our citizens under surveillance by operating in the capacity of a supportive roll to this "Building Official".

Citizens beware! If you see someone trespassing upon your property, don't do anything rash, It just might be it is a "Building Official" performing his or her duty under this special Constitution circumventing ordinance. A solution to lowering citizen fears might be that this "Building Official" be required to wear identifying clothing. One suggestion is a light brown shirt with a red, three inch wide left arm band. A uniform world recognized for more than 60 years for its despicable right to enter and trespass without a warrant. Nice historical touch!

The other more effective solution might be to remove by recall, those who pass, justify, and enforce these ordinances that are not only unconstitutional, but are now being used to persecute selective targets who are the residents of Shady Cove.
