    The property, known as Slate Ridge, includes multiple buildings and two firing ranges on land about the size of 30 football fields (12 hectares). Fueled by complaints from neighbors, the town of Pawlet has attempted unsuccessfully for several years to get the facility owner Daniel Banyai to remove structures he built without a permit.

      I mean, yes, I agree, but I’m curious as to what exactly the structures are, too. If we’re talking about an average “shoot house” type range, where it’s just a bunch of walls built to resemble a building, beefed up to properly stop and contain bullets, or some other similar “structure”, sure, going after him over the lack of a permit for it is legal, but seems like it’s being done more as a means of nickel and diming him with every technicality because new neighbors are NIMBYs than because there’s a legitimate issue
