Shortly after I got home from Detroit, we received a citation from the city for failing to obtain the registration that I had just renewed. In that citation was the following line:
“A fine paid before this hearing date shall be reduced by 10% and a fine paid after this date shall be increased by 10%. There is no reduction or increase in fees for early or late payment.”
I love this city.
Also: I called the city’s “tree removal” department at the number listed at several places on their web page. The number has been disconnected.
Also: I called to find out what time the inspection might occur on Thursday. That number rang and rang. I called the front desk and verified that I was calling the correct number.
Me: “Well it just rang and rang”
Them: “Yeah, they cut out pretty early. You should probably try in the morning.”
Me: “Don’t they have an answering machine or anything?”
Them: “No, I don’t think so. Did you have any further questions for me sir?”
Me: “No, thank you. You’ve been very helpful.”
