As dust clears from the whirlwind of activity that was Kim Kardashian's Montecito wedding, details are emerging from the much-hyped weekend event.
According to Sheriff's Department spokesperson Drew Sugars, his office received 22 calls from neighbors complaining about the raucous affair at 2845 Sycamore Canyon Road. Most of the complaints were for loud, loud music and helicopters buzzing overhead, but a few were for trespassing and paparazzi activity. Sugars said that a sergeant was sent out at around 12:30 a.m. to shut off the music. The Kardashians complied, but gossip magazines reported that one the sisters threw a bit of a fit.
The private security firm contracted by the Kardashians, explained Sugars, hired seven on-duty deputies to help with crowd and traffic control. Sheriff Bill Brown attended the wedding on his own time.
Dianne Black with the county's Planning and Development Department said a notice of violation was sent to the owner of the home where the wedding took place because he did not secure the proper permit. The county does intend to impose a fine, she said, but at the moment not many details are known, such as how many people actually attended or if the owner was paid for the use of his estate. These conditions would change the nature of the violation, Black said.

If you don't want to listen to your neighbor's loud music, then don't build your house so close to their property line. Or become good friends with them and ask them to (help?) pay for a nice hotel for the night if they're having a party.
If you rent, then follow the rules of the owner. They just might be inclined to have good relations with their neighbor, or the other tenants they rent to.
If I rented out a house to students on Del Playa, I wouldn't have those types of restrictions because that would attract the most tenants.
Other places it might behoove the owner to enforce restrictions to attract the most tenants.
Private property rights ftw.

Libertarianism gone mad.
Suppose I am planning to build a house next to my neighbor. Am I supposed to decide my house location by the noisiness of my neighbor? That's just silly.
Or suppose my neighbor and their 10-year old offspring are as quite as a church mouse. So I build my house accordingly. Now, 6 years later, the kids are hell on wheels, throwing raucous parties every weekend. Should I move my house?
Libertarianism worked 200,000 years ago when nobody impacted their neighbor. Now, not so much.

Thank you Nuria Reed for reporting that Bill Brown was at this event! Just shows where his priorities are. What a schmuck. He wants to be a politician so he attends this wedding. It is really sad watching a grown man and professional succomb to reallity television.

What's wrong with everyone? Don't you know that they are special people? And of course they are entitled to have fun at everyone else's expense.

Some people have respect for private property rights, but no respect for their neighbors. Total dis-respect.
