<DIV>Alan,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>But according to the letter of the law, is it or is it not in
violation? I'm not trying to argue, but the law says what the law
says. Shouldn't we write it so it more accurately describes the town's
actual intent? I was at the hearing and my understanding from CM Henry's
speech was that he believed front lawns should look a certain way and to deviate
from that was a detriment to the neighborhood.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks, </DIV>
