you can’t arrest ona misdemeanor not committed in the officer’s presence without a warrant generally, so you’d need to get a judge to sign off ona warrant to go haul the offending party to jail. be difficult to find that judge. more effective probably, would be to make the fine so freaking high that the bank would take care of the proeprty. kind fo like speeding fines aren’t high enough to deter speeding–they’re just things we all calculate in deciding where toset our cruise control. if the fine were $5,000/day, and the house reverted to the city in a month or two, the banks would be on it. The city could then auction the place off right quick and get the hosue in the hands of someone who’d care for it. fine the living hell out of em!
