I appreciate your comments Dick. I am just responding to what was posted on RM.com re: new non-Arc rules and $500.00 fines. Seems extreme to me.

I can appreciate that people aren't happy when there is a car break-in. I'm not either. I just fail to see how adopting a bunch of non-Arc rules for the sake of adopting rules solves that problem.

Maybe there is more to your position than presented, but basically what I got out of the RM.com article is that we've had enough of these kids and we're going to take care of them to make sure they aren't engaged in evil skateboarding, are off our streets, and if we catch them, then off with their parents' heads with ridiculously sized fines. And to make doubly sure we get them, lets hire private security to follow them around.

We have criminal laws to enforce crimes. If someone is caught, let the criminal process take its course. We don't need the CC&Rs and non-Arc rules venturing into the Penal Code. Just my humble opinion.

However, I will wait to see the actual proposed rules. I trust they will be readily published and available prior to the final, final public comment period.
