The city of Seattle has asked a citizen to trim back her flowers on the city parking strip in front of her home to city approved height or risk a big fine. She has refused on the grounds her garden is an enhancement to the neighborhood and poses no safety issues.
Read the articles and watch the video for details. [Links below.]
What would you do if faced with this problem? How would you feel about city officials threatening you with a fine when your intention was to beautify the neighborhood for all to enjoy?
