Odd timing for you to show up here because just a day or two ago I also saw Danny Brocker comment on a Facebook post of someone I know.
The things that make you go "Hmmmmmm......"
I am 100% on his side, BTW. I live & have a private track in WA and would have no issue if a few of these government "officials" were given the Amos Moses treatment.................
The Shop
Or are you intentionally trying to impersonate him? I don't think that this is a coincidence.....
If it were one or two locals that lived on the property riding bikes, I doubt the county would really care. However 20 people will get attention, and the county will want to know about waste management, insurance, fire prevention, and emergency services.
Brocker ran into issues with the county due to his not understanding what non-conforming property use means, “grandfathered”
Brocker refused to play nice.
Brocker refused to respond to county letters
Brocker learned that refusing a stop work order come with a penalty
Brocker learned the that refusing a court order comes with a penalty.
Brocker learned that after ignoring a judges order judges can slam you.
I am not defending any county and how they operate, not at all.
But I do a bit of property development here and there and local zoning enforcements vary massively from county to county.
“Grandfathering” is because over time, a property is zoned to a use code that makes it non-conforming use.
Said property is then considered legally non-conforming use.
The owner of a legally non conforming use has a SMALL WINDOW of use, you’re locked in.
To do pretty much any changes requires county approval.
If you make changes without approval the property become non-conforming use.
Game over.
Lastly, a county has limitless funds to pursue these issues.
We only have what’s in our bank accounts.
I play nice because I don’t have limitless funds.
A couple of years ago I wanted to remove some trees from a riparian zone that had been damaged by beaver. I wanted to remove them before they fell on their own and took out whatever was in their fall.
Most of my friends told me to just do it because I would never get permission from the different governmental agencies that had jurisdiction over the area. A few of them had been fined for doing the same thing before.
I ended up calling the county planning department and they sent out a Planning Engineer within a couple of days. I showed him the damaged trees, the further damage that could be caused by them falling uncontrolled and he issued me a pretty simple document that allowed me to proceed with the removals. He also put in writing that I could remove a certain number of trees each year if I emailed him pictures of damage. This ‘permission slip’ applied to any and all of the other agencies dealing with that portion of the river.
The most memorable thing that he told me was that it was much easier to work with people trying to work within the system instead of having to come in after violations occurred and the violators didn’t want to own up to their actions.
He never disobeyed any judges orders. The judge did not make an order for him to get a permit, he made a threat and Mr. Brocker sold the property before the next hearing. Which was all 100% legal. The judge was out smarted and there was nothing he could do after that court date, so he revoked his probation and put him in jail in the middle of a pandemic.
As for the grandfathering, Mr. Brocker didn’t change what was going on at that property regarding the mx tracks.
Just because you do everything the county says doesn’t make them or you right, it makes you a sheep, Brocker stood up against the injustices, if you saw county emails saying things like “we are going to shut this place down using something in the code or we will draft an emergency code.” “We can’t get a search warrant, I’m going to try to get the army core or epa on board with a NOV”
The county I am sure has spend half a million dollars over 10 years trying to get him and he’s spent some money on lawyers and did some jail time, hopefully he win his lawsuit.
Pit Row
Either way, you guys may have had a chance had you not just completely ignored the things that you were asked to do. But your University of Google law degree was worth exactly half of its cost and it didn’t serve you well in court.
As another poster said, it’s not surprising that you had to actually do jail time for something that almost never involves jail time.
And you did state that the track was being used commercially. Your first post was so poorly written I thought you were on the opposite side of the issue -
However, "077" there are some big coincidences here, sure lots of people use the number 77, but 077 is pretty rare is it not? cant say I have ever seen a bike with that number on it.
You also list your location as from the same county and have also posted some paperwork with Danny's name and address on it. Finally, your only posts have been in this thread.
there are 3 possibilities here.
1. It's the biggest coincidence of all time
2. You are Danny and saying that you are not,
3 You are someone else, but trying to pass off as Danny.
If you are him, cool, Danny has more relevant info on this than anyone here.
