[StBernard] demo, debris, Grass cut penalties

[Westley Annis]

The primary consequence for non-compliance will be the lien that is attached
to the property for the fees for work perfomed as part of remediation on
behalf of the non-compliant homeowner ranging from grass cutting to
demolition, and many activities in between, that will in many cases have to
be resolved in order to get through the LRA plan. 
 
As far as the big bad wolf- what will be will be.

 Craig, exactly WHAT penalty is the government looking to impose upon
non-grass cutters for not cutting their grass? How many penalties/warnings
to the homeowners? What's the end-result for non-compliance (even though to
many who live hundreds of miles from their homestead)? At what point does it
get really serious? 

Perhaps it could involve those who are awaiting their gutting or Road Home
recovery will be looking for their saving event before the parish nukes
their homes/property from existence..

Still, to many, it could be the equivilence of Organized Terror considering
how/why people are not around to manage their properties? One needs to
understand their situation as well as the government's side of things to
fully work out a successful recovery plan. Putting the parish in a bad light
(or CNN material, needlessly as will happen as we approach the anniversary
<and Anderson Cooper 360> will shine heavily to a sympathetic nation as the
world's microscope focuses once again on our proud and forced-humbling
ordeal.

Failing to consider the consequences of national press would make the
"big-bad wolf and his 3 pigs" seem minute by comparison to what an alerted
press would do when they jump on the sensationalism, perhaps. 

That's why we need to know the consequences as to know when a line has been
drawn in the sand with 2 opposing sides at issue.
