If I buy any other properties in that corner of the city I will end up with him.With building inspectors you don't go to the mayor, you follow the chain of command till you hit the state level.

Backyard actually has plenty of usable space including the upper portion with killer views.Yes, CA is a market where views command premium pricing and the dirt alone is valuable.
