The argument "they never did, so they never will" has not stood the test of time. Kings do not build armies not to use them and governments do not make laws not to use them. Selective enforcement of draconian laws is a good way to suppress people and keep them in line. The selling point for building codes is the safety argument. Weathered paint is not a safety issue but it is still a violation in our new code. I do not like people who vote for laws designed to oppress citizens either through their ignorance or by design.
Any of the three other candidates, from what I have seen here, are more interested in representing Puna than toadying at the County building, and hence a better choice than Fred.
