Yup - I learned about "Selective Enforcement" in the same village I had the other troubles in. Town cop was the nephew of the neighbor across the street. I would get a ticket for parking on "HER" side of the street, but they could park on mine and even facing the wrong way. Took photos and had the county sheriff out several times to verify. Had a fun time messing with them on that one! Got bunches of signatures and other people together - ended up getting the cop fired. Town TRIED to get back at me when I wanted a privacy fence - told me "NONE WERE ALLOWED IN THE CITY LIMITS". A month later a neighbor got a permit to put one up.

Had the mayor ASK if I still wanted a privacy fence - told him "NO - I like the way my hedges look". We had 3 dogs. Town passed an ordinace that said anything over 2, you had to pay a $200 "Kennel Fee" (wasn't passed because of me, but someone with 9 dogs, who was acually practicing for the Ididarod Race). I licenced 2 in the town and one "became" my sister's dog and was licenced in another town. He was "visiting" us for over a year. Sometimes you CAN fight city hall - just pick yer fights (and, above all, have fun doing it!).
