Editor: I would like to bring this to the attention of Bill Storie, 91原创 Township manager of bylaw enforcement, and his crew.

Their jobs are to enforce the bylaws and to be non-selective in decisions as to who to prosecute.

I realize that it鈥檚 easier to intimidate a citizen who builds a tree house for his children than deal with the developers.

And, these developers must realize that they have the protection of the bylaw officers and take advantage of that privilege granted to them.

Illegal signs are everywhere, but just to give an example of one area out of control, is 208 Street and 80 Avenue across from an elementary school where children daily cross the intersection and run the risk of having their vision impaired by eight large billboards, not to mention a multitude of sandwich boards.

It鈥檚 not only there, but everywhere one can see illegal signs, and why isn鈥檛 something done about it?

A few years ago, I was charged with six counts of mischief because I took the law in my own hands and cleaned up my neighbourhood.

The judge dismissed the charges and told me that I should go the legal way and not take the law into my own hands.

But that doesn鈥檛 work, as the people whose job it is to enforce our bylaws can care less.

By the looks of it, these public employees are just interested in power tripping and collecting their pay cheques.

Maurice Van der Beke,
