That last video reveals some sort of feud.
This is clearly not just a matter of out of control county officials.

Your right, also I now here some of the locals stating that these people living off the grid are growing Marijuana. Yet I see no evidence of this.
Yes, some of the people living off the grid "might" be growing marijuana, is this the real reason the government is causing a problem for these people?

I have been seeing this pattern at every level of government across the country. From the anecdotal evidence, it is even worse in the UK and Europe.
Ordinarily, I would say sell your property and leave immediately for better pastures but, it sounds like these people already voted with their feet. At a certain point it becomes scurrying under rocks like frightened vermin.
My recommendation is to fire everyone involved. It's just that simple and completely doable at the scale of a town or county.
Recall elections, deprecation candidates, whatever is necessary to communicate the message.
fines have “nothing to do with driving up revenue” and “We are just trying to make you safe.”

I wish it were such a story, but it's not quite so favorable for these guys. They aren't doing it the right way. If they were doing it right there would be others coming, and fast. I would be one of them. They just want to set up and squat basically. The local residents are having to pick up their trash dumping, and they seem to be growing pot illegally in Colorado (yea figure that out).
