This sounds like a heck of a lot of work, surprised anyone would spend the time:
Violators often avoid detection by deleting their postings during the day when enforcement staff is in the office and then replacing them late at night or in the early morning hours when potential tourists are awake and booking vacations.

Why would cities create rules that would result in so many "outlaws"? Sounds like they made a mistake.
