Cosma is a tenant and in lawful possession of a 30 X 50 ft trailer
space per park agreement and includes a private parking space.
Tenant,
Kerrick (uncertain of true identity), resides in either a small
cabover camper or a salvage and wrecked motor home near the close
proximity of Cosma's residential trailer. When Cosma first moved
there, the first thing she did was request from management
permission to section off the area and put a fence around it for
privacy and safety reasons. Within first few months Cosma sectioned
off a partial area with a portable wooden garage, slowly endeavoring
to complete to repair another vehicle.
A
few times during July-August 2012, Cosma was busy winterizing her
trailer when she looked up and saw what appeared to her to be the
guests of Kerrick; a group of rough intimidating hooligans and a
homeless man staring intently at her. One younger man approached
Cosma at her door using a hoax common-on, asking her if someone lived
at her residence. Eventually, Cosma phoned the police who helped
disperse the group.
Most
encounters by Kerrick and his friends are ignored by Cosma due to the
fact that she is a single woman. Once this becomes noticed, she
experiences all kinds of hostilities and harassment. After a while
Kerrick's guests began to park closer to Cosma's trailer area she
uses
primarily for her parking at her dwelling unit. There
is an immense empty one+ acre field where parking is unlimited and
appearing to be at the tenants convenience. On Thursday, November 4,
2012, Cosma asked Kerrick to please not park in her area because she
would be blocked in.
On
Friday, November 5, 2012, at approximately 8:30 a.m., Cosma was
preparing to leave her residence to help a friend at the local public
library with his legal case when she noticed that Kerrick
deliberately parked in the area Cosma asked him not to park in.
Before getting in her vehicle and driving away, Cosma told Kerrick
that she would be hiring someone who was to arrive that day to place
fence boundaries; his vehicle was in the way and it would need to be
moved.
Nevertheless,
where a reasonable person would conclude that parking is not normally
permitted at all, around 2:30 pm – 3:30 pm,
the person Cosma hired arrived and Kerrick's vehicle was still in the
way. Kerrick
had chained his pickup to the
salvage and wrecked motor home. The dummy chain was removed and towed
a few feet from Cosma's area when she saw a Klamath County Sheriff
driving by. Waving him down, the officer proceeded to observe and ask
questions about the property and pickup. He indicated to Cosma to do
whatever she felt was necessary.
According
to
ORS §98.810
(2), an unauthorized parking of a vehicle on proscribed property is
prohibited without the permission of the owner. Specifically,
Kerrick was not to leave or park any vehicle on the proscribed
property whether or not there is a sign prohibiting or restricting
parking on the proscribed property. Further, if
a vehicle has been left or parked in violation of ORS 98.810,
just
and reasonable charges can be requested. During the course of towing
Kerrick's vehicle, Cosma sustained damages to her vehicle amounting
to $595 to $600 (See estimates).
Within
the last few months that Cosma has resided at the mobile home park,
law enforcement has pounded on Cosma's trailer several times during
late after dark hours asking for someone named “Cornett”
“Kerrick”... Cosma has replied to the officers she fears
communicating with the surrounding neighbors due to problem meth use
and would like to enjoy a low profile. Management was also aware of a
couple of incidents where police were called by Cosma due to
Kerrick's loitering guest who were annoying Cosma.
It
may appear necessary to report this incident to the DMV as the
injuries may proceed to court and increase over the $1500 72-hour
reporting limits. However, if management waives a months rent
($185), reminds Kerrick to refrain from creating a hostile
environment in the presence of Cosma, abide by some kind of limits
and decency rules, Cosma can get on with her living arrangements.
Respectfully,
