He believed the problem still exist because Code Enforcement cannot tell <br />him what materials he is allowed to have on site. He also pointed out that he had already loaded <br />over 50% of the material into the container, and would continue to load the rest of the material <br />into containers, in a couple of weeks, subject to one condition: if someone decides who has <br />jurisdiction or who can tell him what he is allowed to have for materials on his site, and go out <br />with him to confirm the items accordingly. <br />Attorney DeBraal explained the "threshold" issue to Mr. Barton and why he had <br />to re -figure his plans initially. <br />Mr. Barton objected to the Attorney's explanation and provided his own.
