Buckle your seat belts, put on your helmets and brace yourself for the most colossal transportation wreck in the history of Santa Cruz County.

[...]For over 30 years the California Coastal Commission has been overzealous in its attempts to control private property. In Dennis Schneider’s case the Coastal Commission attempted to impose unreasonable building conditions on his yet to be built house merely because it could seen from certain spots off-shore.

Santa Cruz "red-tagging" is an experiment in social engineering. Those in favor with those in power get special treatment. Those who are not in favor often end up with alleged building code violations called "red tags." This is not the story of a free America that has rights protected by the Constitution.
