I live a small town 1,250 people where just about 90% of the people are either related by blood or/and Marriage, I moved here in 2006 when my now deceased husband talked me into moving here. I live on just the outskirts of the town but within the town limits, the road of which I live on consist of 5 home's, 2 which our mine.
Here lies my problem, the neighbors to my west started making anonymous calls of Complaints / Charges, against me since around April May of 2007, ranging from anything and everything, IE: Dog Barking, Odors of Sewage, My over all yard up keep, Number of car's I own, Elderly abuse charges etc.... All complaints where all unfounded with the exception of {1} Dog Bark complaint.
Since 2007 I have had all 3 of our local officers to my door average was 3 times a week which is now down to 2 - 3 times a month, D.O.T, Sheriff's, State Police, and E.P.A just to name a few.
Now I will admit there is some yard clean up i am needing to finish but i am Disabled and on a fixed income so I do what I can as I can.
I have gone to my Mayor and City Council asking them to work with me to help in accomplishing what has been asked of me regarding my properties. The {X} now Mayor came to my home, spoke with Me and asked if I would be willing to do certain things as to some removals etc., I told him yes and that, that process had already been started on my end but I would need further assistance from the Town such as a container stationed near my properties that I could use or to waive the dumping fee's as I could not afford them.
I went to the Town meeting and it was agreed upon.
A container was brought but we ended up with more snow and the container was than place down onto the snow, I than had to wait until the snow stopped and the mud dried up, before I could continue my yard work.
I went ahead and held me a "Bobcat" to help with some of the yard removal and to fill {1} large hole, but as luck would have it the New Mayor came into office and on that very day the container was removed, and that week-end is when I had the "Bobcat" reserved for. I did what yard work I could on that day but beings I had no where to place any more removal I had to stop in the middle of doing it with time still left on the "Bobcat" that i was unable to use.
Now the Town has sent out a letter threatening me with Fines, added Utility charges on my Electric bill, and possible Jail and property liens.
I am at a lost as I have tried to work with the Town, and have tried to uphold my end of what was agreed upon, but they on the other had did not hold up there's. I am still doing what I can as I can but because they did not hold up to their end of the agreement, what would of taken me a simple 6-8 hrs to complete will down trickle back to trying to do my best as I can.
Do I have any standing? or recourse? How do I look up codes? or ordinances? Regulations? What are my right? How do I find out what my rights are if when I ask them what codes etc.. they offer me nothing? They say they are sighting state codes etc.
Thank you for any fed back, sorry for being so long winded on this.

Answer
THE AMERICAN DREAM.....
An unemployed man is desperate to support his family of a wife and three kids. He applies for a janitor's job at a large firm and easily passes an aptitude test.
The human resources manager tells him, "You will be hired at minimum wage of $5.35 an hour. Let me have your e-mail address so that we can get you in the loop. Our system will automatically e-mail you all the forms and advise you when to start and where report on your first day"
Taken aback, the man protests that he is poor and has neither a computer nor an e-mail address.
To this the manager replies, "You must understand that to a company like ours that means that you virtually do not exist. Without an e-mail address you can hardly expect to be employed by a
High-tech firm. Good day."
Stunned, the man leaves. Not knowing where to turn and having $10 in his wallet, he walks past a farmers' market and sees a stand selling 25lb. Crates of beautiful red tomatoes. He buys a crate, carries it to a busy corner and displays the tomatoes. In less than 2 hours he sells all the tomatoes and makes 100% profit. Repeating the process several times more that day, he ends up with almost $100 and arrives home that night with several bags of groceries for his family.
During the night he decides to repeat the tomato business the next day.
By the end of the week he is getting up early every day and working into the night. He multiplies his profits quickly.
Early in the second week he acquires a cart to transport several boxes of tomatoes at a time, but before a month is up he sells the cart to buy a broken-down pickup truck.
At the end of a year he owns three old trucks. His two sons have left their neighborhood gangs to help him with the tomato business, his wife is buying the tomatoes, and his daughter is taking night courses at the community college so she can keep books for him.
By the end of the second year he has a dozen very nice used trucks and employs fifteen previously unemployed people, all selling tomatoes.
He continues to work hard.
Time passes and at the end of the fifth year he owns a fleet of nice trucks and a warehouse that his wife supervises, plus two tomato farms that the boys manage. The tomato company's payroll has put hundreds of homeless and jobless people to work. His daughter reports that the business Grossed over one million dollars.
Planning for the future, he decides to buy some life insurance. Consulting with an insurance adviser, he picks an insurance plan to fit his new circumstances. Then the adviser asks him for his e-mail address in order to send the final documents electronically.
When the man replies that he doesn't have time to mess with a computer and has no e-mail address, the insurance man is stunned, "What, you don't have e-mail? No computer? No Internet? Just think where you would be today if you'd had all of that five years ago!"
"Ha!" snorts the man. "If I'd had e-mail five years ago I would be sweeping floors at Microsoft and making $5.35 an hour"
