Hi Michael, I never have this problem as I haven't registered my yards. I tried for three years to do so but was told each time that NY state had no inspection program (no $$$ that is I assume) at the time. So I said the heck with it. After reading this kinda glad I didn't. I can't imagine someone having such lack of respect for someone elses property. I'd keep on the phone till I got a hold of someone and demand that they schedule a time to inspect so you could be standing there. Michael, can you image an inspector going to a dairy barn then kicking out the sides of the barn and beating the cattle and equipment? If unacceptible for the rest of agriculture then I see no reason for it to be the same here. I'd consider calling the police and reporting it as vandilism. Or some such action as this feeds the family.
