I provide accommodation for thirty or forty people in the City of Victoria where I rent 25 suites, all in the 1300block of Hillside Ave. In the ten years that I have owned the buildings I have been subjected to a series of phone call complaints most of which are unfounded or are a stretch which allows the lodging of a complaint. The campaigns have on at least four occasions have successfully motivated the Bylaw Enforcement and Police Officers to abuse process, to enter my property without Judicial warrant or invitation and to engage in campaigns, the aim of which is to lay a really serious punishment on myself, a now sixty five year old apartment building owner. It appears that Andrew Dolan has gotten into a conflict with my business, my family and myself.
Somehow Dolan was at my property at exactly the time that snow was suppose to be removed from the public sidewalk and on a day when he knew conditions were such that he knew that removal would be able to be accomplished in the short time allotted to property owners. I have not been able to physically do any shoveling due to injury for many years now. I phone my manager, and I continually stress that the snow should be removed from my property, in particular from the long steeply sloping driveway, but also from the flat sidewalk out front. At the time which Dolan deemed appropriate to issue a ticket, the adjacent apartment building had not cleared the sidewalk, and the street behind the apartment building where our home and office are located was not cleared. In other words we have to get a truck out of our property on Ryan Street to purchase more sand and deicing compound and the street is impassable but we are still expected to be able to clear the sidewalk for the City of Victoria.
No ticket was presented to me, nor was I informed in any documentable manner that our protest of the tickets had been disallowed due to a technicality, but Andrew Dolan arrived at my privately owned and un-rented property at Otter Point BC, with an RCMP escort. This time just the two of them but I was handed a document demanding a five hundred dollar payment and threatening my arrest. Dolan, to me was an aggressive angry and dangerous looking person.
I looked Dolan up and he has been involved in situations where he metes out punishment with a club. I don't pay twenty thousand dollars taxes to The City of Victoria to have them use the money to treat me like this. I think theres alot of information about the City of Victoria which should be widely disseminated. I think of it as "Crack City", crackpots making phone calls of complaint to other crackpots who willingly engage in the crackpot cop-calling scheme to stir up crackpots in the Police Department and then take a drive around downtown at night. "Crack City Victorial", the crackpots and the crackheads have won.
