Etienne Constable was told to build a 6-foot fence to hide the boat from view of his neighbors — but he got an image of the boat painted onto the fence.

I would have liked to find out why this ordinance exists. It makes no sense to me.

Retired neighbors with nothing better to do.

The neighbors complained because they have nothing better to do, but why was the ordinance created in the first place?

So the neighborhood doesn’t look like a getto full of people too poor to keep their boats in the marina like decent fokes.

Theres a newish neighbourhood near me with a high percentage of reasonably cashed up retired people… nice houses with 2 car garages on small blocks. Every other house has a caravan or a boat and they almost all park them on the street.

Some of the streets have been effectively reduced to one lane in both directions, sure its legal but its a giant pain in the balls to get around.

Then don’t go there.
