I guess my little sunflower house is the talk of the town.
One of the city codes officers is married to one of the painters. She was here with him this morning and told me she has gotten lots of comments on the yellow house on my street.
I thought, oh lord, but she said they were all good comments. Everyone likes it!!!
Looks like we just made it under the wire. Seems the city is trying to put all buildings, including homes withing 500 feet of our Old Fort, under the jurisdiciton of the Federal Government. Our fort is a National Historic site now. I'm not sure my house it that close to the fort but if it is, I would have had to have gotten the Federal governments approval before I could even paint my house, and what color it could be. Any improvements and repairs would have to have their approval too.
Since we painted it before the government takes control of the town, they can't make us do anything. I really wish the govenment would butt out.
I'm hoping this falls through and the town remans ours. Lord only knows what the government will do with it.![]()
