I hate to be the one to break .it to you, but your commentary is vastly overpriced and overrated. You might want to reconsider, as it is HER property, not the city’s. She has every right to do as SHE wants, as long as no fumes, waste or pests migrate to her neighbors.
His opinion is overpriced as is mine but, the neighbors are entitled to live in a neighborhood free of blight and if you look at the street view of her home it ain’t purdy.
She is likely a slob and should move to a slob neighborhood or the countryside where no one cares.
Now, now, no need to divert and redefine the point I was making. I wasn't defending what those regulations are or that they are appropriate or what have you.
Unfortunately codes exist in good part because there are always people who "need a law" for what most consider to be basic good manners and decency. From the careful crafting of the article and photos, it appears that the complete picture is something other than what is painted.
Some folks can go ahead beat their chests and insist that they have a right to create eyesores on their own properties, in full view of the neighborhood, but those who abide by a higher law prefer to love their neighbors as themselves.
The World to Come will be populated by a gracious and considerate people who don't "need a law." That's exactly why it will be a paradise.
