I Recently received an email from Mike Downey in VA USA i actually had a double take when i read with abject horror this story. Id be interested to get our communities response to this outrageous behaviour.
Injustice in Arlington, County, Virginia - USA
I testified before the Arlington County, Virginia Board last month and I was ignored. The Injustice will be broadcast every month until the Arlington Board resolves the blatent Civil Rights Violations.
Arlington County called about a potential mosquito problem from our Lily pond stocked with Japanese Koi fish and water lilies.
I temporarily removed the Koi fish in the pond and poured in bleach to kill any mosquitoes and I informed Arlington. I then returned the fish to the pond. As directed, I placed a mosquito larvae capsule in the pond. A Violation Notice was then taped to the front door. Arlington County then said, “I put a work order in.” Then the Agent of Arlington (Inrecon/Belcor), had ignored a no-trespassing sign, entered into the backyard double locked gate and filled the lily pond with sand, which killed a dozen rare Koi fish and destroyed the pond. Damages are $30,000.
The rental property is owned by a Disabled Deaf 85 year old, her sole source of income; who lived in Arlington 42 years.
Arlington Attorneys refused to settle for a year. We then filed suit and Arlington’s sole basis for defense was “We are immune from lawsuits.” Our Attorney said, “They destroy your pond and hide behind immunity.”
Mike writes: The Koi Community is outraged about the loss of Koi Life and the attack on the very culture of the Koi and Koi people. If you would like to express your views and outrage; write or email the County Board of Arlington, County, Virginia. We are also looking for legal support.
Please also send me a copy;
