How do you fight local city officials?

Question

Our business is in a small town that has a Ford Plant so there is a lot of money in the local government that has very little to do.
Our local building inspector and fire marshal have something against our company. They keep coming around with a new gripe and we have has several people in our industrial park, especially the managers, say they can't believe how much these two departments are picking on us. Where do we go to report abuse? What can be done to make sure there is no backlash?

Answer 1

Check with your State Attorney General's office.

They probably have it listed on their website, but I believe if you can get 10 or more people to sign a petition stating the complaint, they'll start an investigation. May differ by state?
