"Lawrence Ngai, new code enforcement officer for Pacifica, landed his dream job in the town in which he was born and raised. Ngai, 26, graduated from Oceana High School and earned a bachelor's degree in criminal justice from San Francisco State University. After graduating, he went to corrections academy in Sacramento where he learned municipal codes and officer safety.
The most common complaint he addresses is the accumulation of junk in front yards. He gives residents lots of time to correct the problem, only resorting to a citation if absolutely necessary.

Anonymous 1:23 I'd stay anonymous if I were you a Code enforcement officer can fine you thousands of dollars a day for some infractions and he has a very big book full of them.
1157 banyan. Drive by to see a true junk yard. Google satellite or street view doesn't do it justice
Have u bothered to tell some one who could do something if it really is in violation? Like the code enforcement officer? You might not be top priority, but you'd actually be doing something.
